book of job

In the Book of Job, we explore the profound issues surrounding evil and human suffering. These themes are something most of us can relate to, as they resonate deeply with our own experiences. occurring around 2000bc Job is consider one of the books written in poetry and wisdom.

the very first verse tells us the Job lived in Uz in the north part of Arabia Job was considered wealthy in tribal culture of the ancient times. Things start to change very quickly  we read in chapter one verses 6-7 there was a day when the angels present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came with them and the Lord ask Satan where he had been and Satan said to and fro and east and west.and walking  in yke earth walking up and down in it;the Lord said have you considered my  servant Job,that there is none like him in the earth. A perfect and upright man one that fearth the Lord and cheweth evil. Satan replied has tho not blrssed everything he dose and his substance increased in all tne land? take it all away and he will curse thee.to thy face.so the Lord gave Satan permission to  test Job but to spare his life only..
