Teach

“Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty?
Let him who reproves God answer it.”

Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord,

Or as His counselor has informed Him?

“Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker—
An earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth!
Will the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you doing?’
Or the thing you are making say, ‘He has no hands’?

For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His counselor?

For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

He judgeth

“Shall one who hates justice rule?
And will you condemn the righteous mighty One,

Who is like the Lord our God,

Who is enthroned on high,

If you see oppression of the poor and denial of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be shocked at the sight; for one official watches over another official, and there are higher officials over them.

It is He who sits above the

circle of the earth,

And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,
Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain
And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.

Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life?

For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment;

And angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day,

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.
