For May the 24th 2013



5/24/13

After Job had all of these unthinkable things happen to him three of his friends came by to comfort him in all of his grief. “They sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.” Then after Job speak up each one of the friends speak works of comfort to him (not really, I am being sarcastic). Then for the third time  in this chapter Job speaks again and he is sort of put these comforters in there place when he says; “No doubt you are the people, and wisdom will die with you. But I have understanding as well as you;”  Job 12:2-3

Some commentators on Job say that he is kind-of a smart-alecky! I think he just understands that God is sovereign and He will do what He pleases to do.
