### sense in the lessons

Interpretation: In Job, Elihu says he will not give flattering titles, meaning false honour, to any man. Tradition reads this as honest speech that does not favour the powerful. In the primary lessons: In school you write a title at the top of your work and underline it; graphs and charts need a title too. In stories titles of nobility like Lord or Duchess show rank. In sport, teams fight for a title. In maths, a bar chart's title tells what the data show.
