Commentary on Job 38:39

Theological / Devotional

Lion. The picture changes again. Logically, ch. 39, which is a discussion of the animal kingdom, should begin at this point. God is asking Job whether he could succeed were he given the responsibility of feeding a family of lions. Divinely implanted instincts lead the animals to do what it would be difficult or impossible for man to do.
