Job shows that the industry of man finds out many hidden things, such as silver, gold, iron, and brass, Job 28:1-11. But that the more valuable treasure of wisdom lies beyond his reach, and is not discoverable by any of his efforts, Job 28:12-22. That God, however, who alone comprehends it, hath revealed to man that portion of it which it most concerns him to understand, which is to fear God, and depart from evil.
