Charles Ellicott Commentary Job 22:24

"And lay thou [thy] treasure in the dust, And [the gold of] Ophir among the stones of the brooks;" — Job 22:24 (ASV)

The gold of Ophir.—And, moreover, this signifies that the wealth for which he was so famous among the children of the East was the accumulation of iniquity and wrongdoing.

The sense probably is, “Put your treasure on a level with the dust, and the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks”: that is, reckon it of no more value than such stones; do not set your heart upon it.

The location of Ophir has always been a matter of dispute. Josephus placed it in India (Antt. viii. 6 , § 4), as do some moderns; others suppose it to have been an Indian colony in Southern Arabia, and others have placed it on the east coast of Africa.
