Job 37:14 - Exposition

Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God . Consider the marvels of God's works in nature, as I have set them forth to thee ( Job 36:27-33 ; Job 37:2-13 ); the mysteries of evaporations, of cloud formation and accumulation, of thunder, of lightning, of snow and frost, of genial showers and fierce downpours, of summer and winter, of the former rain and the latter, of the gentle breeze and the whirlwind; and then say if thou comprehendest the various processes, and canst explain them, and make others to understand them (verse 19). If not, shouldest thou not own, as we do, that "we cannot find him out" (verse 23), cannot reach to the depths of his nature, and therefore are unfit to pronounce judgment on his doings?
