“It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?”
Zophar asserts that divine heights are higher than heaven and the depths are deeper than Sheol, using cosmic imagery to express the infinity and incomprehensibility of God. The spatial imagery suggests that God transcends all dimensions of creation. Human attempts to comprehend divine purposes are as futile as measuring the heavens or the depths of the underworld.
