Job 32:15–22, “They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking. When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;) I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion. For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me. Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles. I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer. Let me not, I pray you, accept any man’s person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man. For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.”
Elihu criticised the other three men because they didn’t continue to tell Job that he deserved his suffering because he was a sinner. He then said that he was like wine fermenting in a closed bag. There was nowhere for the gasses to escape and it would eventually burst. He didn’t want to burst with indignation himself so he would refuse to remain silent. He didn’t think that he should show respect to people who didn’t deserve respect any more.
