The required reading for Wednesday, May 12 is Job chapters 22-31
Bible Reading Assignment
For Wednesday, we'll be reviewing the third and final round of speeches and responses:
2) Job’s friends come to comfort and stay to accuse (2:11-31:40)
d) The third round of speeches:
i) Eliphaz speaks; and Job answers him (22:1-24:25)
ii) Bildad speaks; and Job answers him (25:1-26:14)
iii) Job continues with his cry before God (27:1-31:40)
Questions to prepare you for class
1. Is Eliphaz now accusing Job of harming the poor and the widows?
2. Did Job have some form of the Word of God, “Words of God’s mouth”?
3. Is Job complaining to God for not punishing the wicked?
4. What does Bildad compare man to?
5. How does Job convey that he can only partially understand God?
6. Has Job finally caved and admitted a great sin?
7. What is the value of wisdom?
8. Where does wisdom come from? What is wisdom?
9. How does Job defend against Eliphaz’s accusation from question 1?
10. In what ways had Job declared his innocence and humbled himself?
As we conclude the persecuting/defending and begin chapter 32, a new friend speaks.
