Notice that Job does not merely repent in a general sense. Rather, having encountered God, he realizes that God is God, and that he, Jacob, is a creature, mere dust and ashes in the presence of God, who is being itself, who is all in all. Yes, Jacob is a son in the presence of a Father; he is not God’s equal that he might question Him or put Him on trial. Job or Jacob? Make up your mind, Monsignor.
Mourning for the Hebrews/Jews consisted of covering oneself in dust or ash signifying to be buried while still alive.

After anointing the parishoners with ashes, our pastor said “I was surprised that several folks held out their tongues. I must admit that I was tempted...”
You had to be Catholic.
