Job 28

Commentary

Job 28 is a chapter that speaks to the wisdom of God and the power of His knowledge. It begins by noting that true wisdom and understanding come from God alone, and that it is impossible for humans to attain it. The chapter then goes on to describe the lengths to which humans go to try to find wisdom, such as mining for precious metals and searching for hidden treasures. However, these efforts are ultimately futile, as only God has the true knowledge and understanding of the world. The chapter ends with a reminder that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and that only through Him can true knowledge and understanding be attained. This chapter serves as a reminder that God is the source of all wisdom and understanding. It is a reminder that humans cannot attain true knowledge and understanding on their own, and that only through God can they gain the insight they need. It is also a reminder that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and that only through Him can true knowledge and understanding be attained. This chapter serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of seeking God's wisdom and understanding in all aspects of life.
