Holy Scripture

Job 8:4

A church father on this verse
“Even Bildad is confused in his speech and is pulled in different directions by various doctrines, when he says, "If you yourself have not sinned, your sons have." Thereby he does not believe one is punished for someone else. But he may be included (in his reasoning), for he delivered the transgression into their hand…”
