“Which doeth great things and unsearchable ; marvellous things without number: unsearchable: Heb. there is no search without: Heb. till there be no number”
Job 5:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 5:9
Eliphaz praises God: 'Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number.' The Hebrew 'gadol' (great), 'ein cheqer' (unsearchable—no investigation), and 'pele' (marvellous/wonderful) acknowledge God's incomprehensible wisdom. This is true theology—God's ways transcend human understanding (Romans 11:33). Ironically, Eliphaz uses this truth to support false conclusions. The fact that God's ways are unsearchable should humble us from dogmatic pronouncements about others' suffering, not embolden them.
