“If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.”
Job describes God's wisdom as unsearchable and understanding as infinite, establishing that God's knowledge transcends human comprehension. The attributes of infinite wisdom and understanding become barriers to human understanding of divine action. Job's affirmation of divine transcendence establishes why the friends' explanations are inadequate: they presume to comprehend what is incomprehensible.
