Download or read book The Speeches of Elihu written by W. E. Staples and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speeches of Elihu: A Study of Job XXXII-XXXVII The Book of Job comes to us from the hand of its author, or authors, in distinct and readily recognized parts: the prologue, Chapters 1-2; the dialogue, chapters 3 - 31, with the exception of chapter 28, the relation of which to the rest of the book is problematical; the Elihu speeches, 38-40: 14; 42: 1-6; the Behemoth and Leviathan poems, 40: 15-41; and the Epilogue, 42: 7-17. Whether or not all, or most, of these parts were included in the original book has been much debated. It is now all but universally acknowledged that the Leviathan poem is an addition. The descriptive passages in chapters 38 and 39 are short and brilliant, while those in the Le'viathan poem are long and heavy. The multiplicity of questions, so noticeable in the Jahweh speeches, is lacking, and the whole impression made upon the reader is quite different. Dr. Driver1 considers that the chief aim of the book is negative. The author's aim, he thinks, was to controvert the dominant theory that all suffering is derived from ante cedent sin. A secondary purpose, which was positive, is found in the prologue, to Show that affliction is sent upon the righteous to test their integrity.

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 Ethical God Talk in the Book of Job written by William C. Pohl IV and published by T&T Clark. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William C. Pohl IV investigates ethical God-talk in the book of Job, by exploring the prominence of such theology, showing how each major section of the book highlights the theme of proper speech, and demonstrating that Job's internal rhetoric is the foundation for the book's external rhetoric. Pohl analyses each of Job's speeches for literary rhetorical situation, forms (i.e., genres), its rhetorical strategies; the rhetorical goals of each speech are identified in light of Job's exigency (or exigencies) and his use of strategies is explored in light of these goals. Pohl argues that Job faces two main exigencies: his suffering and the necessity of defending his protest prayer vis-à-vis his “friends.” Job seeks to alleviate his suffering with protest prayer, and to defend his prayers to the friends through argumentation. Following the internal rhetorical analysis, this study proceeds to examine the external rhetorical effect of the Elihu and Yahweh speeches vis-à-vis ethical God-talk. Pohl concludes that the book of Job shapes its readers to see protest prayer as an ethical, even encouraged, form of discourse in the midst of innocent suffering. Brief implications of this conclusion are outlined, identifying the book's rhetorical situation through the “entextualized” problem in the book. Pohl proposes a new exigency for the book of Job in which protest prayer was eschewed, and a tentative proposal for the book of Job's historical provenance is outlined.

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.

Download or read book The Glory Now Revealed written by Andrew M. Davis and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God's people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God's glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving. If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it's time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.
Download or read book The Structure of the Book of Job written by Claus Westermann and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishing. This book was released on 1981 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is based on the simple insight that in the Bible suffering has a language all of its own and that one must understand the languageof lament if one is to understand the Book of Job. As the lament, the language of suffering, encompasses three dimensions of human existance-being a self, being together with others, and being before God-so the author of the Book of Job pictures Job's suffering in the three persons who embody it: Job, the friends of Job who in turn become his enemies, and God. This insight, derived from the structure of the Book of Jobm afford sthe key to understanding this remarkable book, whose power has remained undiminished over thousands of years.
