Job 32:9

"But there is a spirit in man, and the Spirit of the Almighty gives them understanding."

Key Reflection

This verse suggests that true wisdom does not come from natural human abilities or age but is a gift from God. The Spirit of the Almighty赋予人类理解力，强调智慧是超越自然的恩赐。

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Great men are not always wise -Though wisdom may in general be looked for in them, yet it is not universally true. Great men here denote those who are distinguished for rank, age, authority. Neither do the aged understand judgment -That is, they do not always understand it. The word judgment here means right, truth. They do not always understand what is the exact truth in regard to the divine administration. This is an apology for what he was about to say, and for the fact that one so young should speak.
