Job 11 - 17

Job
JobSteve Gregg

Steve Gregg discusses the speeches given by Job and his friends in the book of Job. He observes that Job's responses have been interpreted as sarcastic, but the tone of voice is uncertain. Gregg notes that Job accuses his friends of speaking obvious things and not truly knowing God's thoughts. While Eliphaz initially had a good point about fearing God, the speakers' egos and biases seem to have taken over the conversation. Gregg suggests that re-examining one's theological position may be necessary when faced with unusual providences.
