"And now no one looks on the light when it is bright in the skies, when the wind has passed and cleared them. Out of the north comes golden splendor; God is clothed with awesome majesty. The Almighty—we cannot find him; he is great in power; justice and abundant righteousness he will not violate. Therefore men fear him; he does not regard any who are wise in their own conceit."
Elihu uses a beautiful and apt simile to make the justice of the LORD, God the Almighty real and potent. Just as I cannot look into the brightness of the sun on a clear day, so I cannot stand in the presence of the perfection of the LORD's justice. It is without flaw and there are no appeals other than the blood of Christ.
Oh, foolish man who say's there is no God; the Day of Reckoning is coming.
