God shows through Job that what really matters is how things turn out in the end.
Uzziah was a great king and was greatly blessed of the Lord. At the peak of his strength, he began to trust in himself. His strength led to his fall. It is often in times of perceived strength that saints of God become most vulnerable.
As God continues to confront Job with His greatness, Job makes his first feeble answer: “Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee” (verse 4)? God then asks Job if he has the abilities and powers of God. God closes this chapter with a description of behemoth as the chief of the ways of God.
The Levitical sacrificial system had five separate and distinct offerings that could be made to the Lord.
It is not enough that the offering is brought; it must be acceptable to God. God must receive it.
