IMITATE THEIR FAITH/JOB - Continue

 "Out of the Windstorm"

As Elihu spoke, he often mentioned wind, clouds, thunder, and lightning. He said of Jehovah: "Listen carefully to the rumbling of his voice." Moments later Elihu referred to a "storm wind." (Job 37:2, 9) It seems that as he spoke, a storm was brewing, growing steadily more intense. Finally, it was an all-out windstorm.  And then something more dramatic happened. Jehovah spoke! - JOB 38:1.

When reading the book of Job, it is a wonderful relief to come to these marvelous chapters containing Jehovah's speech to Job.  It is as if a windstorm of truth were blowing away all the empty speeches, all the false words of Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar. Jehovah did not even address those men until later. His focus was on Job alone; He firmly addressed his beloved servant as father would correct a son.
