Job 37
Book of Job
Job 37:1 At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that goeth out of his
mouth.
3 He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the
earth.
4 After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and
he will not stay them when his voice is heard.
5 God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we
cannot comprehend.
6 For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain,
and to the great rain of his strength.
7 He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
8 Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
9 Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north.
10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is
straitened.
11 Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud:
12 And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he
commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth.
13 He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
14 Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of
God.
15 Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to
shine?
16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which
is perfect in knowledge?
17 How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
18 Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten
looking glass?
19 Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason
of darkness.
20 Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be
swallowed up.
21 And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind
passeth, and cleanseth them.
22 Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty.
23 Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and
in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.
24 Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.
• 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)
