"The Bible comes alive so much more with all the
illustrations, paintings, sculptures and stained glass windows.
Through them the stories are crystallized in our minds."



”Reading the Bible, we meditate, we think deeply about faith and beliefs, we gain insights and, thanks to all these great artists, these paintings become visual teachings and a powerful companion to the Bible.”

That’s fine, as long as they don’t allegorize Job out of actual existence.

It could very well be an allegory for us, as well…

Well done. I like #1 very much. As for Job’s naked body it had to show the sores covering his body to make the wanted impression. Poor Job endured his suffering with patience but he too at times shouted at God. Very human reaction in a wonderful man of great faith.

He suffered everything just so that God could win a bet with the devil.

It’s been over 4,000 years since Job lived (and finally met his Redeemer!), and yet even today he still sets the benchmark for long-suffering endurance.

If that is truly your take, then you misunderstand fundamentally the whole of the Bible and of God.

At the micro level, yes, to win a bet with the devil. However, the macro level is the important one. Millions of believers over the last 4000 years have taken comfort, learned knowledge, wisdom and patience from the Book of Job. God used Job to educate and enlighten untold numbers of people going through whatever painful episode in their life was occurring.

The small amount of time that Job suffered, in view of the eternity of time he will enjoy as a child of God, is not comparable. Romans 8:18

You’re :-/sad at Job’s suffering. Typical female response. Guys are just hollering, “Suck it up, Buttercup!”
