IYOV

The Book of Iyov (Job) in the Hebrew Bible.

Right at the heart of the age-old question: Why do bad people prosper while good people suffer?

This is a clear test of one’s worth to be blessed by G-d.

The book begs the question WHY?

Job On The Grandeur Of G-d

He may not seem to notice your iniquities. But He does sees it.

Free yourself from sin.

“Zophar’s Speech And Job’s Response”

He would relate to you hidden recesses of wisdom, for His sagacity is manifold. Know, then, that God exacts from you less than your iniquities!
11:6
Can you achieve an understanding of God? Can you fathom the extent of the Almighty?
:7
Its measure is longer than the earth and wider than the sea.
:9
… He sees iniquity, though He seems not to notice.
:11
If there is iniquity in your hand, put it far away; and let not sin dwelll in your tent.
Then you would lift your face without blemish; …
:14-15
The eyes of the wicked would look with longing, haven would be denied them. Their hope would become despair.
:20

1 Now Zophar the Naamathite replied and said,
2 “Should not a multitude of words be answered, or should a talkative person be accounted right?
3 Your fabrications may silence men, and you mock with no one to embarrass you.
4 You said, ‘My doctrine is pure, and I was clean in your eyes.’
5 But, would that God would speak and open His lips with you,
6 and tell you mysteries of wisdom for the wisdom is double, and know that God lends you of your iniquity.
7 Can you find out the mystery of God; can you find out the limit of the Almighty?
8 [In] the heights of heaven, what will you do? Deeper than the grave, what do you know?
9 Longer than the earth is its measure, and wider than the sea.
10 If He passes and confines and assembles, who can hinder Him?
11 For He knows deceitful people; when He sees iniquity, He does not consider it.
12 But an empty man will gain understanding, and [from] a wild donkey a man will be born.
13 If you prepare your heart and spread out your hands to Him,
14 if there is iniquity in your hand, distance it, and do not allow injustice to dwell in your tents.
15 For then you will lift your face without a blemish, and you shall be strong and shall not fear,
16 for you shall forget trouble; like water that has passed shall you remember.
17 And your luck shall rise more than midday; your darkness shall be like the morning.
18 And you shall trust for there is hope, and you shall dig [around yourself] and lie in safety.
19 And you shall lie down and no one will frighten you, and great men will supplicate you.
20 And the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall have no way to flee, and their hope shall result in intense grief.”

G-d | Greater Than Man

Divine wisdom or Divine justice may not be evident during the test with hardship and suffering. But, full trust in G-d is the best response no matter how difficult the situation may be or become.
