Day 153: WISDOM, Innocence, and Lament in Job 29-31 | Bible In A Year (CSB)


Listen Later

On Day 153 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we cover Job 28-31. Job reflects on the elusive nature of true wisdom, found only in fearing God. He passionately defends his innocence, recounting his righteous life, and laments his current suffering, yearning for God to hear his case in a fallen world.Questions:1. Job’s detailed defense of his integrity in chapters 29-30 contrasts with his present humiliation—how might his reflection prompt us to consider the value of steadfast righteousness, even when it seems unrewarded in this life?2. Job’s longing for his past days of blessing in chapter 29 contrasts with his current rejection—how might this shift challenge us to reflect on the tension between cherishing God’s past faithfulness and trusting Him in seasons of apparent abandonment?3. In chapter 31, Job’s plea for God to weigh his case reveals deep trust amid despair—how does his persistence invite us to wrestle with the tension between longing for divine justice and resting in God’s unseen purposes?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
