Commentaire sur Job 11:6

mysteries of wisdom and you would know that the wisdom is double, i.e., the Torah that you did not fulfill.

Everything in existence has two realities:

that [God] lends Heb. ישה, like (Deut.24: 10), “If you lend (תשה) your friend.” He has yet a large debt over you in the matters of your iniquity.

1. The reality of the thing in itself and ...

2. That perceived by our senses. This duality is the cause of our misinterpretation of events. For all our observations are subject to time and place and are based upon our senses which perceive only the external attributes. Could Job but perceive the reality of things as they are in themselves, he would recognize that he is not perfectly righteous for he has not fulfilled all the potential for good with which he was endowed and so is deserving of punishment.
