“Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.”
Job 40:10 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 40:10
"Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty." God sarcastically challenges Job to clothe himself with divine attributes. The Hebrew verbs—adeh (עֲדֵה, "adorn yourself") with gaon (גָּאוֹן, "majesty/pride") and hod (הוֹד, "splendor/majesty")—describe royal or divine glory. This exposes human inability to assume God's role. We cannot fabricate the attributes necessary for righteous governance. The verse teaches that recognizing what we lack should produce humility, not resentment.
