Started studying Job a few days ago. I have only really read the first two chapters really closely a few times.
During a meeting in which the angels are presenting themselves before the Lord, Satan is there. God calls attention to Job and describes Job as perfect and upright.
Those two words need definition and perhaps clarification.
Perfect is the English of a Hebrew word meaning complete.
Upright is a similar word which indicates that life was lead in the right way.
Job lived his life as a complete Christian man. He live his life in a way that was totally pleasing to God.
Perhaps the next few days will be reports of findings in this first chapter.
Job is, in fact, considered the oldest book in the Bible and written before the Law of Moses was handed down. Keep that in mind.
Until next time...................
