We should expect to be chastened for our wrongdoing, and in this passage, Elihu talks about how chastisement can effect more than just our bodies, it can even change the taste of the food that one eats. However, for Job, the real punishment during his trials was the emotional, mental and spiritual conflict attacking his faith. Why was all this evil happening to him?
