# Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, a man whom God has hedged in? "God should not give life to a man and then take away his future and confine him." # Why is light given to a man "Why does God keep a man alive" # whose way is hidden Job speaks of his future, which he does not know in advance, as if God had hidden it from him. # a man whom God has hedged in "around whom God has built a hedge". A man is spoken of as if God had put a hedge around him so he could not move.
