Job 28:23

23 Dios entiende el camino de ella, y él solo conoce su lugar

Job 28:23 Meaning and Commentary

Job 28:23

God understandeth the way thereof
And he only; not the way that men can come at the knowledge of wisdom, which at present appears to be past finding out; but rather the way which wisdom itself takes, and is in the deep, and its footsteps not known by any other, and the grounds and reasons of its taking such a course it does; which are only understood by the Lord: it may be applied to spiritual wisdom in men, and the way to come at it; which God only knows and instructs in, and is his special and peculiar gift; and to Christ, the wisdom of God, and the way which he has taken in the council and covenant of grace and peace, for the salvation of his people; and which he took in time, in the assumption of human nature, and by sufferings and death to obtain it for them:

and he knoweth the place thereof;
the seat of wisdom within himself, the source of all his dealings with men, his sovereign will and pleasure in his own heart; the place of spiritual wisdom and knowledge, the heart of a regenerate man, where his Gospel is, and has come with power, and took place and works effectually; and where Christ, the Logos, the Wisdom of God is, even with himself, and in his bosom, as in the times of Job, and now at his right hand, in human nature.

Job 28:23 In-Context

21 Porque encubierta está a los ojos de todo viviente, y a toda ave del cielo es oculta

22 El infierno y la muerte dijeron: Su fama hemos oído con nuestros oídos

23 Dios entiende el camino de ella, y él solo conoce su lugar

24 Porque él mira hasta los fines de la tierra, y ve debajo de todo el cielo

25 Haciendo peso al viento, y poniendo las aguas por medida
