And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.
Job 32:10
Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.
Job 32:17
I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
There are three times in the KJV that the English word "opinion" is used, all in Job 32. The book of Job is a book of arguments. The word "arguments" is found only one time in the Bible, also in Job.
Job 23:4
I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
The English word "arguing" is also found only one time in the Bible, in Job.
Job 6:25
How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
Job and his three friends all expressed their opinions and argued in support of their opinions but God rebuked all four of them in the end for the errors in their thinking. Elihu was not rebuked and he was the only one of the lot who did not come across as one who is right and everyone else was wrong. He gave his opinions (which were right), called them his opinions, and offered for any of the others to prove him wrong after he spoke.
Elihu was right and should be a lesson to us about arguing our opinions in front of others. Give our views as our views and genuinely and politely allow others to express opposition with their arguments.

The book of Job is a part of our Holy Bible. There are reasons that God made this to Be that I don't know. If I am correct, it is a poetic book of fiction by an unknown author yet the character named Elihu expresses Christ-like praise of God The Father. I am in awe of this demonstration of our Heavenly Father's Faithful presence in His Children's lives since He first created us.
Hi Anne; I wondered for some time about who was this Elihu. And I have to put him among the others who arrogantly misjudged and falsely accused Job; and he wasn't anywhere as bright as his love of self and youthful pride purported. And what was the LORD's answer out of the whirlwind about the presumptuous speech? "Who is this who darkens counsel by words without knowledge?"
Elihu wrath was kindled against Job because He justified Himself Rather Than God, Job had a severe trial here. He looked at himself and said, I don 't see anything wrong with me. There was only one thing God could do: Try him and humble him until he listened.
Always loved starting at this chapter...Listen in those three guys .. but you gotta listen I guess..I was actually talking this fourth man with the most evil man..Now I know why cuz the guy that teachers it would no its no evil man he was jealous....Anyway fascinating book..
In life, you need to fall down with every possession you have left your hands and see friends, family members and the world you live in, to see who they are. In today’s world, we don’t walk in spirit world anymore; we only see what our eye sees. There are some times we forget we have God who made this universe; he looks over both the spiritual and the physical worlds in all at once.
