These verses confirm for us that wisdom is a communicable attribute of God. And Job needed ‎wisdom, but at this point in the discussion with his friends and his acquaintances he didn’t think ‎that he needed counsel from anyone else. He wanted to hear from God. But he would have to wait ‎for that. His friends had ceased answering him because they couldn’t get him to accept their ‎reasons why these terrible things had happened to him. They thought it was because he had sinned ‎in some terrible secret way and was not confessing it. Elihu, a younger man, had waited to speak ‎because he was younger. He thought that the aged men would have more wisdom than he. But in ‎this case it was not so. And so he thought that he would speak on God’s behalf to try and encourage ‎Job to wait and see the issue; how God would act in regard to all of these awful things that had ‎happened to Job. It will be our wisdom, if we can do the same in regard to the most difficult ‎situations in life that we face. ‎
