Charles Spurgeon Commentary Job 33:12-13

"Behold, I will answer thee, in this thou art not just; For God is greater than man. Why dost thou strive against him, For that he giveth not account of any of his matters?" — Job 33:12-13 (ASV)

Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man. Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.

This man seems to have the very spirit that rested upon the apostle Paul when he was arguing with an objector against the Lord's way of working, Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? The greatness and grandeur of the Eternal should prevent our raising objections against anything that he does.

Who are we, the moths of a moment, the creatures of an hour, that we should interrogate the Infinite and question our Maker? What he does must of necessity be right; though we cannot understand how it is so, we must believe it, and meekly bow to the will of the Lord.
