It took me a little less than 10 minutes to read this passage. I would love to have seen the look on Job's face when God began to speak from the cloud. His prayer to have a direct audience with God had been answered. Yet it was probably nothing that he had expected. He had been speaking from a wounded and hurting heart, but God does not address any of Job's questions; God speaks to teach Job about his soverignty and authority. I would have also liked to have seen the look on the faces of Job's friends. Surely they knew they were in trouble as God spoke to Job. The must have determined that something was amiss when God DIDN'T comend their defence against Job. I wonder if they were hoping that the storm would quickly pass so that they could go back to their comfort zones as well?
