INTRO: I suppose, if I were to summarize Job 38-39, it would be, “So Job, you think I count you as my enemy, and I am far removed from your problem. I am not your enemy. I love you with an everlasting love. I care about your problems and I am able to fix up all your problems. But you have a few things to learn. From inanimate creation, you should be able to see that I know every last thing about you and I care about every last little thing. Now I want to show you a few things about Myself from animate creation, from the animal world.” And as I see the book, when God is done showing Job how much He knows and how much He cares then He will proceed to reveal Job's problem to him.
The book of Job is written like a good novel. It builds up the plot and builds it up, until almost the end of the story and then the plot is revealed and everything ends and Job lives happily ever after. Now let me say a few words about that. If it pleases the purposes of God, then life may not end up living happily ever after. It may end up in death. But if it should end up in death, in the midst of it all, I can fully trust God that He knows and cares about every detail of my life.
