"Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty?" The term "faultfinder" is only found here in the Old Testament and means "to admonish and correct". At least twice (Job 10:2; Job 23:6), Job had accused God of contending with him. In addition, Elihu had rebuked Job for complaining against God (Job 33:13). "Let him who reproves God answer it": Job had equally expressed the desire to argue with God and present his case (Job 13:3). Notice that God eventually does defend Himself. This section should remind us to remain humble and trust God's wisdom. If this is the type of rebuke that. righteous man like Job received for questioning God-what type of confrontation will the rebellious face?
