He incites Job to attention Pay attention The phrase "pay attention" is a call to focus and heed the words being spoken. In Hebrew, the root word often used for "pay attention" is "קָשַׁב" (qashab), which means to incline one's ear or to listen carefully. This is not merely a passive hearing but an active engagement with the message. In the context of Job, Elihu is urging Job to give careful consideration to his words, suggesting that what he is about to say holds significant importance. This call to attention is reminiscent of the wisdom literature in the Bible, where listening and heeding instruction is often linked to gaining understanding and wisdom (Proverbs 4:1).
