Job 38 - 42
JobSteve Gregg
The section of the book of Job, chapters 38 - 42, features God speaking to Job in passing references. The exact message God conveys to Job remains unknown. However, it is a recurring theme in Psalms, particularly in nature Psalms, that God sets boundaries for natural elements such as oceans and rivers. God further draws attention to animals that are fed regularly, even among predators, and describes their pride and courage. The speaker suggests that God's speech in this section of Job may have been intended as poetic speech for man's meditation in the future.
