Job 36:26 is such a striking statement in just about every translation. Some simply say that we do not know God. Others opt to render it in terms of our notย understanding God.
A recent post on Jeff Hoodโs blog connected the verse to Paul Tillichโs idea of the โGod beyond God.โ
By definition, a God that your mind can grasp doesnโt deserve the capital โG.โ And therefore arrogant and dogmatic claims to comprehensionย are incompatible with authentic religious faith.
For a recent book that explores this theme in more detail, see Madhuri Yadlapatiโs Against Dogmatism.
