continuing appointment for this Sunday with The Book of Job, and today we read the exaltation of the infinite wisdom as well, unlike material goods, limited and of little value in comparison
28
1Certo, for there are silver mines
for gold and places where it is refined.
2The iron quarry ground
and cast stone free copper.
3L'uomo puts an end to darkness
and shuffles to the fullest extent
the rocks in the deepest darkness.
4For wells far from the town
those who lose the use of the feet:
hang suspended away from people and falter.
5Una earth, from which it draws its bread
below is as upset by the fire.
6Le its stones contain sapphires
and his gold dust.
7L'uccello prey does not know their path,
not even seen the eye of the eagle,
8non wrought by wild beasts
never crossed by the leopard.
9Contro flint man holds his hand,
upsets the mountains
10nelle rocks digging tunnels
and what is precious pose the eye:
11scandaglia the bottom of rivers
and all that is hidden door to the light.
12th wisdom from where it draws?
And where is the place of understanding?
13L'uomo does not know the way,
it is not on the land of the living.
14L'abisso says: "It is not me!"
and the sea says, "Not with me."
15Non is exchanged with the gold of choice,
or to buy the silver is weighed.
16Non you buy with the gold of Ophir,
with the precious onyx or sapphire.
17Non equates gold and crystal,
nor exchange with pots of gold.
18Coralli and pearls do not deserve mention,
discover the wisdom that is worth more gems.
19Non equals the topaz of Ethiopia;
with pure gold by weight can not be exchanged.
20But where is wisdom?
And where is the place of understanding?
21E hidden from the eyes of every living thing
and is unknown to the birds of the sky.
22L'abisso and Death say
"With their ears they heard the fame. "
23Dio only knows the way,
he knows where he is,
24perché looks back
to the ends of the earth ,
see what is under the vault of heaven.
25Quando gave the wind a weight
and ordered to waters within a measure,
26quando imposed a law to rain
and a way for the lightning of thunder;
27allora saw and measured,
including the full and looked
28th man said:
"Behold, God fearing This is wisdom
and avoid evil, this is intelligence. "

Job Today we speak of knowledge as infinite wealth. If we took all the things of the earth and we put the whole, would be worth even an ounce of wisdom. Let us as two men, one rich and the ignorant and the other poor and wise: which one is pleasing to the Lord and who owns more wealth? Of course the poor because the subject does not make me smarter or wiser, as the Holy Spirit alone can give me wisdom and understanding. We must consider the true value of wisdom and meditate.
When the Bible provides for the creation is always fascinating because it allows you to meditate on the greatness of the Lord that surpasses all earthly science. God made the heavens, He studded with stars and with whom wove a shimmering dress for galaxies, surrounded the land of blue aura, has led to our eyes appeared straight and infinite, when in fact the earth is round. Under our feet is the sea, or maybe there are people and nations: the force of gravity allows to us and to those below us, stand straight and the Lord has calculated everything in His infinite wisdom and meant that the man lacks nothing for its sustenance: fruits, foods derived from animals, all rich in vitamins, protein, calcium, all of which are useful for human body. And these are just some of the many things done by the Lord.
If we were to contemplate creation, arrive early to contemplate the author. And the wisdom of Job tells us, but even before the Lord, is the fear of God and the intelligence to avoid evil. The wise man avoids evil because it knows that it would agree not. Those who choose evil knowing that it is malicious, you fool. who fears the Lord, who humbles himself will humble themselves and receive wisdom from the Lord, also the fear of God is already wisdom, because you know the greatness of the Lord and The fear then is "knowing", it says the same word, that He is infinitely great.
The Next week we will read a Job almost melancholy remember its glorious past, complaining instead of its present condition.
