“Tell us [Job] what words [of man] shall we say to such a Being; We cannot state our case because of darkness [that is, our ignorance in the presence of the unsearchable God]. “So shall it be told Him that I wish to speak? Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up [and destroyed by God]? ¶“Now people cannot look at the light when it is bright in the skies [without being blinded], When the wind has passed and cleared them. “Out of the north comes golden splendor [and people can hardly look on it]; Around God is awesome splendor and majesty [far too glorious for man’s eyes]. “The Almighty—we cannot find Him; He is exalted in power And He will not do violence to [nor disregard] justice and abundant righteousness. [1 Tim 6:16] “Men therefore fear Him; He does not regard nor respect any who are wise in heart [in their own understanding and conceit].” [Matt 10:28]

Forgiveness is at the core of the gospel. Jesus came to die for our sins - so that we can be forgiven. God the Father expects the same from us: To forgive others. But it is not always easy for us to do it.

Although Job's friends attempt to comfort him, it is only by God's revelation of His wisdom and might that Job finds true comfort. Even in deep suffering, God can do all things, and none of His purposes can be thwarted (Job 42:2).
