Yes, that's the same or similar question Job asked. The, then Jewish god, got very angry at the question. On further thinking, the Jewish god decided to come down to earth and live like a man and suffer like Job. Only then did the Jewish god understand the suffering of Job.

"Father why have you forsaken me?!?" Well, that was the same question Job asked. It was after that question that god forgave man for his sins forever. Christ is the answer to Job's question.

Your post is at once ignorant and insightful. You are correct that Christ is the answer to Job's question... He is the answer to all of the questions of the Old Testament. Where you are wrong is in assuming that God had to live among us to understand us... He came to die for us. He didn't come and then discover His Love for us.

If you truly want to understand, I recommend "A Father Who Keeps His Promises" by Dr Scott Hahn. May God bless you.
