Contextual Overview
1 Then Eliphaz from Teman answered Job: 2 "If you were really wise, you would not answer with your worthless personal opinions! A wise man would not be so full of hot air. 3 Do you think a wise man would use empty words and meaningless speeches to win his arguments? 4 If you had your way, no one would respect God and pray to him. 5 What you say clearly shows your sin. Job, you are trying to hide your sin by using clever words. 6 I don't need to prove to you that you are wrong. The words from your own mouth show that you are wrong. Your own lips speak against you. 7 "Do you think you were the first person ever to be born? Were you born before the hills? 8 Did you listen to God's secret plans? Do you think you are the only wise person? 9 We know as much as you do! We understand as well as you. 10 The old, gray-haired men agree with us. People older than your father are on our side.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
What knowest thou that we know not?.... Which are pretty near the words of Job to his friends, Job 12:3; and to the same sense is what follows:
[what] understandest thou which [is] not in us? in our hearts, minds, and understanding; or among us, which one or other, or all of us, have not: yet all men have not knowledge alike; some that profess themselves to be wise, and to have a large share of knowledge, are fools; and such who think they know something extraordinary, and more than others, know nothing as they ought to know; and such who have gifts of real knowledge have them different one from another; even of the things known there is not a like degree of knowledge, and particularly in spiritual things; some are little children in understanding, some are young men and know more, and some are fathers, and know most of all; an equality in knowledge belongs to another state, to the latter day glory, when the watchmen shall see eye to eye, and all shall know the Lord, from the least to the greatest, and especially to the ultimate glory, when saints will know as they are known.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
What knowest thou that we know not? - What pretensions or claims to wisdom have you which we have not? We have had, at least, equal advantages, and may be presumed to know as much as you.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 15:9. What knowest thou — Is it likely that thy intellect is greater than ours; and that thou hast cultivated it better than we have done ours?
What understandest thou — Or, Dost thou understand any thing, and it is not with us? Show us any point of knowledge possessed by thyself, of which we are ignorant.
