Context of Job 36:24
22“Indeed, God is exalted in His power. Who is a teacher like Him? 23Who has prescribed His way for Him? Or said ‘You have done wrong’? Remember to magnify His work, of which people have sung. 25All mankind has seen it; people gaze on it from afar. 26Behold, God is exalted —beyond our knowledge! The number of His years is unsearchable.

Commentaries on Job 36:24
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 24Remember that thou magnify his work - Take this into consideration; instead of fretting against the dispensations of Divine providence, and quarrelling with thy Maker, attentively survey his works; consider the operation of his hands; and see the proofs of his wisdom in the plan of all, of his power in the production and support of all, and of his goodness in the end for which all have been made, and to which every operation in nature most obviously…Read the comment

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 22-2522-25. God is not to be impiously arraigned, but to be praised for His might, shown in His works. exalteth--rather, doeth lofty things, shows His exalted power [Umbreit] (Psa 21:13). teacheth--(Psa 94:12, &c.). The connection is, returning to Job 36:5, God's "might" is shown in His "wisdom"; He alone can teach; yet, because He, as a sovereign, explains not all His dealings, forsooth Job must presume to teach Him (Is 40:13, 14; Ro 11:34; 1Co 2:16). So the…Read the comment
