David’s Beautiful Psalm of Thanksgiving for victory over the enemies of him, his nation. and GOD

Joshua asks for the Sun and moon to stay in place as he defeats these enemies of Gibeon and by alliance Israel.

Joshua proclaims in verse this oath that curses the man that rebuilds a city that is founded on destructive beliefs and behavior. That curse is later fulfilled in 1 Kings 16:34 and that story teaches us to value more deeply our identity in GOD.

The introductory song to this beautiful Book of Psalms is a lesson in life and GOD’s Way for HIS followers

Job is restored to twice the possessions and with beautiful daughters and sons of the same count as before hinting at the eternity of humans in the spirit realm.

GOD tells Eliphaz and his crew how to be reconciled to HIMSELF and to Job.

GOD continued HIS tour of creation, ending with two great animals we are not sure what is described. Job had heard of GOD but now sees a lot more of HIS POWER and EXCELLENCE in Creation and repents, not for sin, but for lack of understanding.

GOD takes Job on a tour of the animals and describes each to him and asks him if he can do what GOD does in commanding and preparing them and their food and their birth. A beautiful tour of GOD’s care for creatures with which we would have little contact

GOD takes Job on a tour of his order and preparation of the weather.

GOD asks Job a series of questions highlighting the vastness of Creation
