Commentary for Job 37:19

ה֭וֹדִיעֵנוּ מַה־נֹּ֣אמַר ל֑וֹ לֹ֥א־נַ֝עֲרֹ֗ךְ מִפְּנֵי־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃

Teach us what we shall say unto Him; For we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.

Rashi on Job

Let us know what we shall say to Him To the Holy One, blessed be He, when we contend with Him. We will not be able to set up a case with Him because of the darkness which conceals and surrounds Him.

Malbim on Job

If, a priori, man is incapable of grasping the metaphysical, perhaps this whole debate was a waste of time and should never have taken place.
