Job: The Book of Job Children's Book for Boys is about Job and the obedient suffering of a believer brings glory to God. The Book of Job traces the story of the character by the same name. The setting of the story is a test of Job's faith by removing everything that is of value to him (wealth, family, and health). The bulk of the story is a conversation between Job and his three friends, who argue about why Job is suffering and conclude that it is due to a sin in Job's life. Job defends his innocence before his friends. Elihu enters the picture and suggests to Job that he needs to be more humble, since God is not required to explain himself. God finally answers Job, but offers no explanation for the suffering. Instead, God humbles Job and seeks to remove any sense of self-righteousness in order that he might find his purpose in God. The book ends with God restoring everything that Job had lost.It begins with an introduction to Job's character—he is described as a blessed man who lives righteously in the Land of Uz. The Lord's praise of Job prompts an angel with the title of "satan" ("accuser") to suggest that Job served God simply because God protected him. God removes Job's protection and gives permission to the angel to take his wealth, his children, and his physical health (but not his life). Despite his difficult circumstances, he does not curse God, but rather curses the day of his birth. And although he anguishes over his plight, he stops short of accusing God of injustice. Job's miserable earthly condition is simply God's will.In the following, Job debates with three friends concerning his condition. They argue whether it was justified, and they debate solutions to his problems. Job ultimately condemns all their counsel, beliefs, and critiques of him as false. God then appears to Job and his friends out of a whirlwind, not answering Job's central questions. Job, by staying silent before God, stresses the point that he understands that his affliction is God's will, even though he despairs at not knowing why. Job appears faithful without direct knowledge of God and without demands for special attention from God, even for a cause that all others would declare to be just. And the text gives an allusion to Job 28:28: "And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding".God rebukes the three friends and gives them instruction for the remission of sin, followed by Job being restored to an even better condition than his former wealthy state (Job 42:10–17). Job is blessed to have seven sons, and three daughters named Jemimah (which means "dove"), Keziah ("cinnamon"), and Keren-happuch ("horn of eye-makeup"). His daughters were said to be the most beautiful women in the land.Christianity has Job as the 18th Book in the Old Testament. Job is also mentioned in the New Testament of the Christian Bible: the Epistle of James (James 5:11) paraphrases Job as an example of patience in suffering.Job's declaration, "I know that my redeemer liveth" (Job 19:25), is considered by some Christians to be a proto-Christian reference to Christ as the Redeemer, and is the basis of several Christian hymns, as well as the opening scene of Part III of Handel's Messiah. However, Jewish bible commentators and scholars point out that Job "insists on a divine hearing in his lifetime" (cf. Job 16:19–22).The book cover attribution: Old Testament Bible Paintings. James Tissot (1836-1902) was a French painter who travelled to the Middle East and painted many Biblical scenes. His Old Testament paintings were purchased by Jacob Schiff in 1909 and later transferred to the The Jewish Museum, New York. These scans of his paintings have been placed in the public domain as a gift of the heirs of Jacob Schiff.The Illustrations attribution: Jim PadgettFor info about the how to go to Heaven, please visit www.thehopeproject.com
