Finally, Elihu the youth speaks with some great words of wisdom.  He has patiently waited while his elders spoke. But now…

Job 32:18-20
For I am full of words, and the spirit within me compels me; inside I am like bottled-up wine, like new wineskins ready to burst. I must speak and find relief; I must open my lips and reply.
It appears as if this younger man has the Holy Spirit living within.

1 Tim 4:12
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

Jeremiah the prophet had similar words to say in chapter 20

Job 33:14-17

For God does speak - now one way, now another - though man may not perceive it.  In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds, he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride," 

God speaks to us in many ways.  Sometimes it may be in an audible voice, or He may speak through His Word, or through another person, or while we are praying.  Sometimes the Holy Spirit as our teacher holds a highlighter pen in His hand calling attention to specific words in scripture. And sometimes He speaks to us in dreams and visions. 

Job 34:3
For the ear tests words as the tongue tastes food.

Isn’t this a wonderful comparison? We should be like the Bereans.
Acts 17:11
Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.

Job 34:4
Let us discern for ourselves what is right; let us learn together what is good.
A great motto for a Bible study – wouldn’t you say???

Elihu, the youngest and possibly the wisest of the men sets the stage for God to speak to Job.
