24. It is written by the Shunamit woman, "And she said, 'I dwell among my own people,'" (II Melachim 4:13) MEANING she does not want to be set apart from the public. I dwell among my people to this day, and I will be known among my people as one whole above. Since Job was known above and was distinguished, the Accuser immediately attacked him and said, "Does Job fear Elohim for naught?" The reason he fears You and has fortified himself WITH GOOD DEEDS is not for naught; "Have You not made a hedge about him..." (Iyov 1:10). However, take away from him all this good that You did for him, and You will immediately see if "he will curse You to Your face" (Ibid. 11). He will leave You and cleave to the Other Side. For he eats at Your table at present; remove Your table from him and we will see whose he is, and to which side he will cleave.
