Not a man

"Behold, I will answer you. In this you are not just, for God is greater than man.

Look to the heavens, and see. See the skies, which are higher than you.

God is not a man, that he should lie, nor the son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?

But Yahweh said to Samuel, "Don't look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for [Yahweh sees] not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart."

Whatever has been, its name was given long ago; and it is known what man is; neither can he contend with him who is mightier than he.

Woe to him who strives with his Maker -- a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, 'What are you making?' or your work, 'He has no hands?'

Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them run away from it; and whoever is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is like me? and who will appoint me a time? and who is the shepherd who will stand before me?

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, "Why did you make me like this?"

because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.

We should

See now, I have set my cause in order. I know that I am righteous.

Oh that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat!

Don't enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
