Paul quoted from Job in both Romans 11:35 and 1 Corinthians 3:19. James 5:11 refers to Job as an example of perseverance. And in Ezekiel 14:14, Job is mentioned along with Noah and Daniel. Those are a few reasons I believe it’s both historically true and inspired.

My pastor preached a series on Job over a period of six months or so. It was one of the most beneficial studies I’ve ever been through. It ended more than a year ago and people in my congregation are still discussing it. If you want to understand Satan and how the world system operates, study Job.

” If you want to understand Satan and how the world system operates, study Job.”

True.

Job also gives us great insight on God’s view of us. Job is a beautiful book from many insights!

It is one of my favorite books. No matter how bad I think my situation was, I knew others had/have it much worse. We just have to stay the course. God knows what He is doing.
