God Speaking to Job

We have finally come to the place where God is going to speak to Job personally. In a "face to face" discussion, God is going to tell Job all that He thinks that he needs to know about the awful situation that He, God, ordained that Job would go through. I think that we should all find it to be a very interesting thing here, that God in Chapter 38, to the end of Chapter 41, does not attempt at all to answer Job's questions related to why He had him go through all of this; the loss of his children, the loss of his possessions, and the loss of the good approval of his wife and his friends. God does not offer Job any apology for this or even make mention of Satan's part in this at all. Rather, He answers Job out of the whirlwind, in the form of a great reproof or a rebuke to him. His whole approach in these chapters will be to ask Job many interrogating questions which can be summarized in this way – Job can you do what I do, as God? Do you have knowledge as I have knowledge? Did you create the world and all things in it? Can you, like I do, uphold the whole creation and everything upon the earth, as I do? God would bring Job to the place where he would understand himself better, in relation to Himself. And we will find in Chapter 42, that Job at the end of God's speech will be satisfied with this. And he will be brought to repentance over all the sinful mistakes which he made in his own speeches, during the whole time of his trial.
