Job 12: Wisdom and Power Belong to God Alone
Dave Jenkins | Reading the Bible Daily with Dave
Show Summary
In Job 12, Job answers his friends with irony and conviction, making clear that they do not hold a monopoly on wisdom. Job declares that true wisdom and power belong to God alone, and that God’s sovereignty extends over creation, nations, rulers, and every human life. Though Job cannot explain his suffering, he trusts the counsel of the Almighty whose purposes never fail.
