• “No man hath seen God at any time”; and, in the fullest sense, even angels cannot look upon His face who dwelleth “in the light which no man can approach unto, whom no man hath seen, nor can see” (1 Tim. 6:16). The seraphim veil their faces as they proclaim His thrice holy Name (Isa. 6.). (“Job 1-2” by S. Ridout)
• The heavenly beings are called “the sons of God,” for He is “the Father of spirits.” (“Job 1-2” by S. Ridout)
• In dreadful contrast with these worshiping servants, these “sons of God,” we see one utterly unlike them in moral character, though having a spirit-nature like themselves. Indeed he was once morally like them, the very chief of them all (Ezek. 28) —the “covering cherub” that shadowed the throne of Jehovah. (“Job 1-2” by S. Ridout)
