Job is tormented by God for reasons unknown to him, prompting Job to dare question God's judgment. By doing this, Job breaks out of the (miserable) life designated for him by God in order to exert free will. Rather than address Job's concerns, God instead dismisses Job as a foolish mortal, suggesting that Job couldn't possibly understand the will of God. The truth is that the will of God is irrational, just as it appears.
