In the context of Job, Elihu is speaking about God's greatness and His control over creation, which is evident to all people. This aligns with passages like <a href="/romans/1-20.htm">Romans 1:20</a>, where Paul states that God's invisible qualities are clearly seen in creation, leaving humanity without excuse. The idea that all mankind has seen God's works emphasizes the accessibility of divine revelation through nature, which transcends cultural and geographical boundaries.<p><b>men behold it from afar.</b><br>This part of the verse highlights the idea that while God's works are visible to all, there is a sense of distance or mystery in fully comprehending His ways. This reflects the theme in Job of human limitation in understanding God's purposes, as seen in <a href="/job/11-7.htm">Job 11:7-9</a>, where Zophar questions if humans can fathom the mysteries of God. The phrase also suggests a reverence and awe for God's majesty, which is often depicted as being beyond human reach, similar to how the Israelites viewed Mount Sinai from a distance in <a href="/exodus/19-12.htm">Exodus 19:12-13</a>. This distance can also be seen as a type of Christ, where Jesus bridges the gap between God and humanity, bringing us closer to understanding God's nature and will.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/e/elihu.htm">Elihu</a></b><br>A young man who speaks to Job and his friends, offering a perspective on God's justice and majesty.
