"Job's Comforters" refers to a group of friends in the biblical story of Job, who come to offer him support during his suffering. Instead of providing comfort, they end up blaming him for his misfortunes, insisting that his troubles are a result of his sins. This misinterpretation of his plight leads to further distress for Job. The term has since evolved to describe individuals who, despite their good intentions, provide unhelpful or insensitive advice to those in distress. It highlights the importance of empathy and understanding when offering support to someone facing challenges.
