day 28 - bible in a year

today's reading: JOB 32:1-34:37

take-aways:

  • Job 32:2Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became indignant. His indignation was kindled against Job because he justified himself rather than God [even made himself out to be better than God]. 3Also against [Job's] three friends was [Elihu's] anger kindled, because they had found no answer [were unable to show his real error], and yet they had declared him to be in the wrong [and responsible for his own afflictions]. 4Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because the others were older than he 5But when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouths of these three men, he became angry.
  • Job 33:13Why do you contend against Him? For He does not give account of any of His actions. [Sufficient for us it should be to know that it is He Who does them.]    14For God [does reveal His will; He] speaks not only once, but more than once, even though men do not regard it [including you, Job].
  • Job 34:4Let us choose for ourselves that which is right; let us know among ourselves what is good.
