Bildad
   son of contention, one of Job's friends. He is called "the
   Shuhite," probably as belonging to Shuah, a district in Arabia,
   in which Shuah, the sixth son of Abraham by Keturah, settled
   (Gen. 25:2). He took part in each of the three controversies
   into which Job's friends entered with him (Job 8:1; 18:1; 25:1),
   and delivered three speeches, very severe and stern in their
   tone, although less violent than those of Zophar, but more so
   than those of Eliphaz.
