In biblical context, fear and trembling often accompany divine encounters or revelations, as seen in Daniel 10:7 and Acts 9:6. Such reactions signify the overwhelming presence of the divine or supernatural, highlighting human frailty in the face of God's majesty.

This experience underscores the seriousness of the message being delivered, suggesting that it is not merely a human insight but a divine revelation.

Discernment in Spiritual Experiences While Eliphaz's experience was genuine, his subsequent advice to Job was flawed. This teaches us to discern and test spiritual experiences against Scripture.
