 "question": "When God breaks His silence, how many of Job’s questions does He answer? Basically, what does He say to Job?",
 "answer": "When God finally breaks His silence out of the whirlwind, He answers none of Job's questions. He does not say, \"Now let Me explain why these things happened.\" Instead He asks Job His own questions: Can you understand how the morning comes? Can you call forth the dawn, or separate the light from the darkness, or explain the flight of the eagle and the hawk? In effect God says, \"If you understand all these things, then you may take My place; but I have My reasons for what I do, and I do not have to tell you what they are, so stand up like a man and accept what I allow.\" He calls Job not to an explanation but to trust.",
