How would you answer these questions of Agur?
Who has ascended into heaven, or descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name, and what is His Son’s name,
If you know?
(Proverbs 30:4)
Why did Agur ask those questions? What was he wanting us to learn or to think about? One thing I get from his questions is that my name cannot be offered as an answer to even one question. Therefore, I need to know that I am not God and should not act as though I am, but I should submit myself to Him who does all those things.
