Elihu, cont.
Answer: 1) God is greater than mortals; mortals have no right to require explanation of God (33.12,13). 2)Some things God does are incomprehensible, yet God does speak. 3) God chastises (33): God is dealing with Job to bring to higher issue.
View of suffering: not only penal but moral; not to requite but to restore; not to chastise but to chasten; judge’s rod and shepherd’s goad.
