Komentarz do Hioba 11:12

But an empty man a hollow man, without a heart [i.e., understanding], who did not understand His way.

But why, we may ask, was man created with this limitation on his knowledge? The answer Zophar gives is that in His wisdom, God created man as 'intellect wedded to matter'. Thus, we gain knowledge through our senses and the bodily material through which we live and perceive limits the degree of understanding we can achieve. Just as an ass cannot be born a man for his body was not designed for this, so man cannot achieve God's absolute understanding.

will gain understanding Heb. ילבב, he will gain for himself a heart [i.e., understanding] to return to his Creator and to search through his deeds—or [he will remain] a man who was like a wild donkey, accustomed to the desert, hasty, without sense.

a man will be born He will teach himself to be a new man according to the order of people, and he will determine his way.
