Grief & Trust Job 7/8 7:1-5 - Job finds himself asking questions beyond his ability to comprehend, he recalls the experience of the moment and documents it almost in disbelief, going over rudiments and principles and trying to figure out where it’s gone wrong. 7:5-10 - Job is again reiterating his desire to not be, he doesn’t want to cast away his life, but he aligns the principles of his situation along that of a person who should either be dying, dead or executed. 7:11-15 - Pain must be allowed to speak, Hebrews 4:15 God didn’t have a problem with what he was feeling, he just didn’t want it to get in the way of what he was supposed to know and do, which is trust and obey.. 7:15-21 - Job questions the wisdom and seeming folly of what appears to be his life. He beseeches God as to what his charge is (Psalm 34), he asks God why have you made me your target, when in fact God had made Job his testament. The enemy would have Job thinking that the very thing he covered his children is the very thing God was exposing him for, but in righteous tribulation God only exposes that which he has already covered.

Abandoned Yet Not Alone Job 6 * 6:1-7 - Job responds in disbelief because he’s answering questions from people that should know, he’s defending his integrity to those whom he already believed understood who and what he was. He doubles down on his argument of righteousness, and asks rhetorical questions of those questioning him. * 6:8-14 - job has now lost the hunger and desire to live, he has seen himself brought to nought and he feels abandoned, yet he’s not alone. He almost questions in a comical what more can I do, what more can I suffer, how much more can I endure. * 6:14-21 - Sometimes we lose patience, sometimes you get to a point where you no longer have any desire to debate. Job actually asks his friends to put up or shut up, he takes them to task over their inability to answer him or judge him justly or fairly. * 6:21-25 - Job goes on the offensive, and calls his friends out, sometimes the heat of the trial will burn away civility and leave you with what you truly feel, and he saw past the synthetic sincerity and wanted to proof his friends and the intention from where they’re understanding was coming from.

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.
