Job 25:5
_ _ “Look up even unto the moon” (Job 15:15). “Stars” here answer to “saints” (angels) there; “the moon” here to “the heavens” there. Even the “stars,” the most dazzling object to man’s eye, and the angels, of which the stars are emblems (Job 4:18; Revelation 9:1), are imperfect in His sight. Theirs is the light and purity but of creatures; His of the Creator. |
Job 25:5
Moon — The moon, tho' bright and glorious, if compared with the Divine Majesty, is without any lustre or glory. By naming the moon, and thence proceeding to the stars, the sun is also included. |
Job 25:5
Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, (d) the stars are not pure in his sight.
(d) If God shows his power, the moon and stars cannot have the light which is given to them, much less can man have any excellency but from God. |
Isaiah 24:23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.
Isaiah 60:19- 20 The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. ... Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
2 Corinthians 3:10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
