Darkened Counsel
Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge? -Job 38:2
Who hasn't received counsel from someone who just doesn't know what they're talking about? This is such a stern rebuke to Job when God tells him he is without knowledge. I am without knowledge. You are without knowledge. Only God truly has knowledge. We can come up with many theories, hypotheses, and theologies, but in the end we live in a world full of mysteries. How did God create the Universe? Why did he choose me? Why does he allow violence? Why did he make a universe that he knew would be fallen and would require the death of his son (himself)? Go read a couple hundred commentaries and philosophers' writings on these questions, and in the end, all you'll know is that we're all without knowledge.
