Commentary on Job 12:13

Theological / Devotional

With him. That is, with God. Verse 12 has mentioned the wisdom of old men. Yet the true wisdom is to be found in God alone. In the remainder of this chapter Job presents illustrations of God’s wisdom and sovereignty. His argument is: God made all things; He sustains all things; He reverses the conditions of men at His pleasure; He sets up whom He pleases, and when He chooses, He casts them down. God’s actions are contrary in many respects to what we would anticipate.
