Matthew Henry Commentary Job 33:29-33

"Lo, all these things doth God work, Twice, [yea] thrice, with a man, To bring back his soul from the pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of the living. Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: Hold thy peace, and I will speak. If thou hast anything to say, answer me: Speak, for I desire to justify thee. If not, hearken thou unto me: Hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom." — Job 33:29-33 (ASV)

Elihu shows that God's great and gracious design toward humankind is to save them from being forever miserable and to bring them to be forever happy.

By whatever means we are kept back from that, we shall at least bless the Lord for those means, and we should also bless Him for them, even if they are painful and distressing.

Those who perish forever are without excuse, for they would not be healed.
