“Springs, Recesses…”

September 24, 2019

“Springs, Recesses…”

Blessings folk!

The Lord God continues His questioning of Job.

Job 38:16-18

“Have you entered into the springs of the sea
Or walked in the recesses of the deep?

“Have the gates of death been revealed to you,
Or have you seen the gates of deep darkness?

“Have you understood the expanse of the earth?
Tell Me, if you know all this.

The Lord reveals great truths by His questions.

We learn that there are springs in/of the sea.
We learn there are recesses of the deep

We learn there are “gates of death” somewhere…in the deep darkness of the sea?

We learn there is an expanse of the earth…the sky?

God wanted to know if Job knew all this.

Job likely did not know about the springs nor deep recesses.

He knew about the expanse, but did he “understand”?
No.

God is driving home the point of the overwhelming knowledge, power, presence, etc. that He is.

He is revealing how man is.

Job has said nothing.
