It was an intriguing comment onto God of our notions of justice and because I know he became a criminal how life should be.

Human standards of justice are incapable of locked onto the reality of injustice before him. He says, reaching the divine justice simply because, as Qoheleth “Because the sentence against an evil deed is not promptly confesses, no one can know the work of God (see 8:17). executed, the human heart is filled with the desire to Mystery strips us of our projections and in the arena of commit evil” (8:12).
