Job 35
Book of Job
Job 35:1 Elihu spake moreover, and said,
2 Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more
than God's?
3 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I
have, if I be cleansed from my sin?
4 I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.
5 Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than
thou.
6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be
multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
7 If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine
hand?
8 Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit
the son of man.
9 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they
cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.
10 But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;
11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than
the fowls of heaven?
12 There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
14 Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him;
therefore trust thou in him.
15 But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth
it not in great extremity:
16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without
knowledge.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
