Job 37 - Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible

Resources » Commentaries » Job » Chapter 37 » exegesis

Job required to explain the works of nature.

Due thoughts of the works of God will help to reconcile us to all his providences. As God has a powerful, freezing north wind, so he has a thawing, composing south wind: the Spirit is compared to both, because he both convinces and comforts, So 4:16. The best of men are much in the dark concerning the glorious perfections of the Divine nature and the Divine government. Those who, through grace, know much of God, know nothing, in comparison with

what is to be known, and of what will be known, when that which is perfect is come. (Job 37:21-24)
