TILTING WHIRLWINDS Suffering and Remedy in The Book of Job
"...how can a man be just before God? If one wished to contend with him, on could not answer Him once in a thousand times. He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength—who has hardened himself against him, and succeeded?—he who removes mountains, and they know it not...who seals up the stars; who alone stretched out the heavens...who does great things beyond understanding, and marvellous things without number.
Lo, he passes by me, and I see him not; he moves on, but I do not perceive him..."
(Job 9.2-11)
