Contradiction with Isaiah 55:9
This verse emphasizes God's ways and thoughts being higher than human ways, which contradicts Job's desire for God to answer him like a human court would.
Isaiah 55:9: For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Contradiction with Romans 11:33
This passage speaks to the unsearchable judgments and incomprehensible ways of God, opposing Job's expectation of understanding God's reasoning.
Romans 11:33: O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable [are] his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 2:16
This verse suggests that no one can know the mind of the Lord, contrasting with Job's hope for a hearing from God.
1 Corinthians 2:16: For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. [may: Gr. shall]
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 8:17
This reference indicates that human beings cannot fully understand God's deeds, challenging Job’s notion of having a debate with God.
Ecclesiastes 8:17: Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek [it] out, yet he shall not find [it]; yea further; though a wise [man] think to know [it], yet shall he not be able to find [it].
Contradiction with Isaiah 40:28
This verse highlights that God's understanding is beyond human reach, which stands in contrast to Job's wish for an explanation from God.
Isaiah 40:28: Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, [that] the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? [there is] no searching of his understanding.
