“Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said, “Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?”” Job 38:1-2 As the Book of Job comes to a close and Job’s 4 friends rest their case, God Speaks! And for the next 4 Chapters, God takes Job to task for his limited

“They say to God, ‘Depart from us! We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways’.” Job 21:14 As the Conversation with Job’s 3 Friends continues, we see him once again lashing out at their Insensitivity. “How long will you torment me and crush me with words? These ten times you have insulted me;
