At long last, Job has figured out that he has nothing to say in his defense. He is not God.
In this discourse between the LORD and Job, the LORD continues to remind Job who He is. In humility, Job is getting it.
One of the mosts intriguing figures, for me, in scripture is Leviathan, that great sea monster. At least, that's what I think Leviathan is. It appears to be a creature so amazing that no man can conquer it. And, God reminds Job of this. There are many things in this world that man cannot conquer without the help of God. I remind you, again, this morning that God is God. There is only one God and it is not us. We have no defense for acting like gods. The only defense when we stand before the judge of all the earth is God, Himself. It is only His love and His mercy given to us through Jesus Christ that finds us righteous. God is our defense.
