Quotes about Obscures

“Who is this who obscures My counsel by words without knowledge?
- Job 38:2
Further, God referred to false knowledge in His words to Job in chapters 38ff. Specifically, in verse 2, God asks Job a rhetorical question wherein He expresses bemusement at Job's spiritual shallowness. He asks who it is that darkens, or obscures, God's counsel. Then He speaks of words that are without knowledge, referring to Job and his three friends who were all blind to the facts of Job's situation.
