Download or read book Job written by Kurt Kennedy and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most prominent men in the entire Bible is Job. He is listed with such great men as Daniel and Noah as one possessing personal righteousness (Ezek. 14:14, 20). Thus, the Book of Job starts out with, "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil." It would be Job's personal righteousness that will make him the target of the one person that hates all things good, Satan, the adversary of God. It is also Job's righteousness that will prove to be a personal struggle for Job. For a right holiness and right walk carries with it the possibility of pride and an overestimation of one's self-worth in the sight of God. Job's so-called "friends" will prove to be nothing more than miserable comforters who while dancing around the truth are never able to lend any advice to comfort Job's pains. It will be God that will set them all straight with wisdom from above; the wisdom that only God can bring, and with wisdom comes comfort and restoration. James asks, "Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy" (James 5:11). The end of the LORD is seen in the Book of Job. It is a lesson for all ages and generations. So, let us travel to the land of Uz and sit at the feet of Job, a man that fears God and eschews evil.
Download or read book Job written by Christopher Ash and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2014-05-31 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life can be hard, and sometimes it seems like God doesn't even care. When faced with difficult trials, many people have resonated with the book of Job—the story of a man who lost nearly everything, seemingly abandoned by God. In this thorough and accessible commentary, Christopher Ash helps us glean encouragement from God's Word by directing our attention to the final explanation and ultimate resolution of Job's story: the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Intended to equip pastors to preach Job's important message, this commentary highlights God's grace and wisdom in the midst of redemptive suffering. Taking a staggeringly honest look at our broken world and the trials that we often face, Ash helps us see God's sovereign purposes for adversity and the wonderful hope that Christians have in Christ. Part of the Preaching the Word series.
Download or read book Remarkable Record of Job written by Henry Morris and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2000-02 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far from a myth or fable, the majestic Book of Job stands forever as a genuine historical account of a man assaulted by the accuser, Satan, and redeemed by a loving God. The author asserts further that Job's ancient account (possibly the oldest book in the Bible, apart from Genesis) is scientifically reliable, touching on aspects of nature that prove man's early knowledge of the universe was more highly sophisticated than many believe today. While this commentary emphasizes that we are not told in the Book of Job why humans suffer, there is sufficient evidence to help us understand that God is indeed interested in us.

Download or read book The Book of Job written by Mark Larrimore and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life and times of this iconic and enduring biblical book The book of Job raises stark questions about the meaning of innocent suffering and the relationship of the human to the divine, yet it is also one of the Bible's most obscure and paradoxical books. Mark Larrimore provides a panoramic history of this remarkable book, traversing centuries and traditions to examine how Job's trials and his challenge to God have been used and understood in diverse contexts, from commentary and liturgy to philosophy and art. Larrimore traces Job's reception by figures such as Gregory the Great, William Blake, and Elie Wiesel, and reveals how Job has come to be viewed as the Bible's answer to the problem of evil and the perennial question of why a God who supposedly loves justice permits bad things to happen to good people.

Download or read book Job written by John F. MacArthur and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events that occur in the book of Job present readers with a profound question: "Why do the righteous suffer?" Although a direct answer to this question seems important, the book of Job does not set forth such a response. Job never learned the reasons for his suffering. In fact, when God finally confronted Job, he could only put his hand over his mouth and say nothing. His silence underscores the importance of trusting God's purposes in the midst of suffering, because suffering—like all other human experiences—is directed by perfect divine wisdom. In this study, pastor John MacArthur will guide you through an in-depth look at the defining themes and interpretative challenges in Job. Studies include close-up examinations of doctrinal themes such as God's Justice and "A Discourse on Human Frailty." —ABOUT THE SERIES— The MacArthur Bible Study series is designed to help you study the Word of God with guidance from widely respected pastor and author John MacArthur. Each guide provides intriguing examinations of the whole of Scripture by examining its parts and incorporates: Extensive, but straight-forward commentary on the text. Detailed observations on overriding themes, timelines, history, and context. Word and phrase studies to help you unlock the broader meaning and apply it to your life. Probing, interactive questions with plenty of space to write down your response and thoughts.
Download or read book The World of Ancient Israel written by Society for Old Testament Study and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-11-21 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encapsulating as it does research that has been undertaken on the sociological, anthropological and political aspects of the history of ancient Israel, this important book is designed to follow in the tradition of works in the series sponsored by The Society for Old Testament Study which began with the publication of The People and the Book in 1925. The World of Ancient Israel is especially concerned to explore in greater depth than comparable studies the areas and degrees of overlap between approaches to the subject of Old Testament research adopted by scholars and students of theology and the social sciences. Increasing numbers of scholars have recognised the valuable insights that can be gained from a cross-disciplinary approach, and it is becoming clear that the early biblical traditions about the formation of the Israelite state must be examined in the light of comparative anthropology if useful historical conclusions are to be drawn from them.

Download or read book The Book of Job written by Ricardo Graham and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is not a fairy tale that ends with "and they all lived happily ever after." It doesn't gloss over the tragedies in life. The Bible tells it like it is: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Among the many stories found in Scripture, few depict all these elements more clearly than the life of Job. Although he was blameless and served God, he had more than his share of trouble. He learned from bitter experience that following God is no guarantee of an easy life. In fact-, usually the opposite is true. But God promises that our end will be better than our beginning if we build our lives on the foundation that He has laid: Jesus Christ, the Righteous Redeemer. In the midst of his despair, Job confidently states, "I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God." This is the end God has in mind for us, life eternal in the earth made new! Book jacket.
