In Job 42, God cancels the words of Eliphaz: “My wrath is kindled against Eliphaz; for he has not spoken the truth concerning Me as My servant Job has.

And, like the article says, we have people out there willing to make doctrinal statements based on what Eliphaz said, particularly in Job 22. Amazing, isn’t it? Like the essay here implies, context is everything when it comes to hermeneutics.

As I mentioned at the end, the most insidious lie isn't the bold-faced one, but the lie disguised in some truth. It goes all the way back to the garden of Eden: the serpent took God's Words, and twisted them enough to fool Eve.
