Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2525971/fan_mail/new] Job Series The book of job is broken down into 4 parts Prologue - Here we are introduced to the main character Job and then we’re transported to a divine council meeting where God is with his sons. The basis of this part of the book is key to understanding much of what is to come. (Chapters 1-2) Discourse - Job and his friends get into it, they offer their opinions on why Job is in this condition, and Job reiterates his innocence and questions God. (Chapters 3-37) The Response - After the 36th time and demanding that God answers him, God responds, sets examples and questions Jobs ability to comprehend the depth and capacity to manage creation. (Chapters 38-41) Epilogue - Job humbled by the awesomeness of God apologises, God restores him, and gives him the choice to restore his friends. Job receives more than what he lost, trust and relationship wins over the uncertainty of doubt and crisis. What do we know - It’s set in the land of Uz which is away from Israel. All characters are non-Israelite, wealth is measured in livestock. The fact he had camels, and the tribal names of some of his friends suggest that regionally we’re looking at a man of great status and position within and among the Arabian tribes. “Opinions Aint Facts” Job 4 We see the introduction of job friends. Now their mourning has changed into accusation and opinion. Harbouring the reality of what they suspect to be the real reason of job plight. It also shows us that there was a secret contempt for the blessing God had bestowed upon Job, the reality of what they truly think is now showing itself, and what a time to do it, at Jobs weakest moment. Eliphaz was convinced this calamity was because Job had been engaging in some secret sin. 4:1-10 Eliphaz questions Jobs account and his version of events, asking first can I get a word in, the cheek of it. Then proceeds to beat him with the stick of his own annoyance where Jobs concerned - his righteousness. Aint it something that the very thing that had landed Job in this situation was the thing that he was being mocked for, his integrity and his righteousness. (John 9:1-3 ref). 4:10-20 they question if God has no regard for his servants and his heavenly administration, what does that make job, and why does he feel entitled to some kind of explanation, but what we’re really seeing is there contempt for Gods blessing toward him. (Psalm 3 ref) 4:20-End - he tries to put job in a box of mediocrity and force/goad him into submission according to his understanding of what he believes to be happening. Yet are you not made with purpose, intention and divine design. (Genesis 1:27/Matthew 6:25-34) Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2525971/support] Presenter: @SheanWilliamsWorld Socials: TikTok: @rhema.biblestudie Instagram: rhemabiblestudies Facebook: rhemabiblestudies Threads: rhemabiblestudies Brought to you by Willow Media House www.willowmediahouse.com
