“Then Elihu continued and said,” Job 35:1
As I said yesterday, Elihu is quite the character, but in spite of his manner, he does have much to say that is profitable. These next 3 chapters are quite amazing. His insights into the Character and Attributes of God are very impressive. How he forms his position and argument is brilliant. There is much we can learn from him.
A great Lesson that comes from this is how quickly we might write off someone that rubs us the wrong way. That’s not to excuse them if they’ve sinned, or behaved in a manner that is not correct. But when we dismiss them because they “are not like us”; Such a Huge Mistake! We are told “God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired.” That would include the “Elihu’s” among us!
