What is the meaning of "ha'Nisah [Davar Elecha Sil'eh]"?

1.

Rashi: This is said in astonishment. Do you weary because Hashem tested you in one matter 1 ?!

2.

Ibn Ezra: The Nun is for plural. The Samech is in place of a Sin, and the Hei is in place of an Aleph. This is [raising,] like "Nesah Aleinu Ohr Panecha Hashem."

3.

Malbim: Did you have afflictions before this, that you cannot bear this? This was your first mishap - how did you stumble from it?!


1

Devar Eliyahu: Avraham was tested in 10 matters, and stood in all of them! (NOTE: Why is this one matter? He suffered three monetary losses, his children died, and his body was afflicted! - PF)

2)

What is the meaning of "va'Tzor b'Milin Mi Yachol"?

1.

Rashi: Who can refrain from answering you?

2.

Devar Eliyahu This is what Elifaz added to Iyov's claims. There are two reasons why man cannot refrain from answering another's words. (a) When he hears improper matters, he cannot bear the injustice. (b) When he hears someone revile his beloved, his love for him compels him to reply. Both of these force me to reply.
