On Day 147 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we cover Job 11-14. Zophar, Job’s third friend, harshly insists that Job’s suffering is due to hidden sin, urging repentance. Job rejects this oversimplification, lamenting his pain while wrestling with God’s power and expressing a fleeting hope in renewal, deepening the mystery of suffering.Questions:1. Zophar’s accusation in chapter 11 assumes Job’s guilt without evidence—how does his rigid perspective challenge us to consider the dangers of oversimplifying suffering and the need for compassion in our judgments?2. Job’s plea in chapter 13 to speak directly to God reflects bold faith amid despair—how might this raw honesty prompt us to reflect on the value of bringing our deepest struggles before God, even when answers seem distant?3. In chapter 14, Job’s fleeting hope for renewal contrasts with his anguish—how does this tension invite us to wrestle with the human longing for restoration and the promise of new life fulfilled in Christ’s resurrection?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
