January 9, Day 9

Today's Reading

Job. What an exchange in today's chapters.  It begins with Job's response to Zophar from yesterday.  "That's not true!" Job seems to say.  "Evil people die fat and happy sometimes.  They don't all get judged the way you say!  Don't try to explain away my misery by calling it judgment on my sins."

In Chapter 22, Eliphaz resorts to, "You must have..."  In other words, "Job, if you would open your eyes you will finally see all these sins God is judging."  Job's response is to again wish for time in God's court so he can prove his innocence.

What a mess!
