"Why are times not stored up by the Almighty, and why do those who know Him not see His days?" Eliphaz had previously argued that God was majestic and separated from man, but. far greater concern to Job was God's "apparent neglect to use that majesty to correct the world's wrongs" (Zuck p. 109). "If God would post on. universal bulletin board His schedule for judging, people would be less frustrated over His seeming lackadaisical attitude toward sin" (Bible Knowledge Comm. p. 747). "He wondered why God did not set side specific times for judging so that those who trusted Him could see Him at work on those days" (Zuck p. 109). Why are the times for judgment upon the wicked not more evident? Job is stating. frustration that people have mentioned throughout time, "Why doesn't God make. clearer distinction in this life between the righteous and the wicked?" Job would like to see. little more fire and brimstone, and. little more frequently on the wicked.
