THE CHOOSID IS FIGHTING AN ISRAELI BUT THE ISRAELI IS FIGHTING HASHEM!!!!!!!!!!!1
The Brisker Rav’s explanation for why Iyov was punished with physical torment for remaining silent when Pharaoh asked his advice on dealing with the Jews: Iyov the Rav explained could readily have justified his silence with the claim that a defense of the Jews would have fallen on deaf ears. Hence the parallelism of the punishment with its implicit message for Iyov: When one suffers from pain crying out helps not a whit to remove the source of the pain but one cries out nonetheless because “az s’tut vay shreit mehn” (when it hurts one screams). WHEN YIDDEN DO AVEIROS AND YOU DONT SCREAM THATS A CHILLUL HASHEM!!!!!
