God's long speech to Job toward the end of the book seems at first to have little to do with Job's complaint. It is a list of rhetorical questions regarding the physical world. However, its pertinence is seen in Job's reply, given in Job 40:4: "See, I am of small account; what shall I answer you?"

It is only when we realize our smallness before God that we can stop trying to figure out what God is doing in any given situation in our life or the lives of others.
