Through his eight times of speaking to his three friends, Job exposed himself, unveiling many negative things concerning himself, including his being self-righteous; his being full of reasons; his blaming his friends for not understanding him and for not sympathizing with him in love; his complaining that God was not fair in treating him in an unexplainable, severe way; his having a legal case between him and God; his knowing God only in the vain, objective knowledge inherited from tradition; his having not received the divine revelation, as unveiled in the New Testament, concerning God’s eternal economy; his being darkened by the success and attainments of his natural being; his being blinded by the concept of his natural understanding; his groping in darkness and in blindness concerning his relationship with God according to what God wants; his being content with what he had become; and his being unaware of his miserable situation before God in not being saturated with God, mingled with God, filled with God, and one with God.
