LEVIATHAN AND BEHEMOTH are featured this week as God uses them to illustrate the difference between Him and Job. While these creatures are described as possessing almost unimaginable power, they are as pets to our Lord, who made them just as He made us.
ELIHU CONTINUES his rebuke of Job, refuting the older man’s arguments and then encouraging him to repent.
JOB DELIVERS his closing argument, recalling the days when his life was blessed, a respected member of the community, contrasting it with his current situation as one who’s mocked and despised. He asserts his innocence again, and issues another plea for a hearing.
WE CONTINUE our study of the Book of Job beginning with chapter 32. Job’s friends, Eliphaz, Zophar, and Bildad have run out of things to say, Job has exhausted his defense, and so today we meet Elihu, a new character in this drama.
