11:33-36 Concluding Doxology. As he concludes his setting forth of God's great plan in the history of salvation (chs. 1-11), Paul breaks forth into praise. God's wisdom and ways are far beyond the understanding of human beings, and hence he deserves all the glory.
11:34-35 The words of Isa. 40:13 teach that no human being knows the mind of the Lord apart from revelation, and no one can serve as God's adviser. Likewise the majestic words of Job 41:11 are a reminder that no one ultimately gives anything to God. Instead, everything humans have is a gift from God (1 Cor. 4:7).
11:36 Since all things are from God, and through God, and for God, it follows that he deserves all the glory forever. God's saving plan brings him great honor, praise, and glory forever and ever.
