Please tell Dr. Randall that he's such a blessing. Hope to be able to meet him in person someday! Hahaha. He's a great teacher! He's teaching and at the same time he's preaching!! It strongly ministers to me. Had to unlearn a lot and learn new from him (interpretation, etc).

[fernandatellez]

What a blessing!! Thank God for His Word 😊

[adonaynisig]

I like how easy to learn the bible like this 16:09

Really good summary. I agree with a lot of your points. I would like to say a few things about Job and the speech of God.
47:47 - "I am unqualified to understand the part I play in the story of God." True, but this wasn't God's main point, because Job already understood that. (Job 9 v4-12)

"You assume you are on equal footing with him" This is the gamble Job makes, he risks being misunderstood. He does not assume he is on equal footing with God. (Job 9 v20) God actually coming to speak with Job shows this divine humility that even though God doesn't have to answer, God does. God assumes Job can handle his own line of questioning.

Jobs confidence doesn't come from his own pride or ignorance. His confidence comes from a series of ideas that build onto one another, ideas Job discovers in his suffering. First, that Job must be of some value to God (Job 7 v17). Then that the righteous will not be forgotten (Job 13 v16) There is a hope of Resurrection (Job 14 v7-9 and v13) His blood will cry out and a heavenly witness will vouch for him (Job 16 v18-19) The redeemer lives (Job 19 v23-25) And it goes on. You will notice that all of these are external to Job, not based in his pride or arrogance. Job is very careful about this, but obviously runs the risk of being misunderstood. His friends can't see what he is doing.

This is the foundation of the case that Job builds. You have to understand that his integrity is not visible, it is hidden, and he is trying with all that he can to make it visible. He is also perplexed by God. Like Job's integrity, God's wisdom is also not visible. It is hidden and obscured. With the same fervor that Job defends his hidden integrity, God defends his hidden wisdom. Just as Job risks being misunderstood, God risks being being misunderstood. God is speaking Job's language, matching his energy, meeting him where he is, face to face. In divine humility and in love for his servant Job.

The pinnacle of Job's speech is his negative confession in Chapter 31. He doesn't dare make his case about all the works he had done, which were many and great. Greater than anyone else in the East. Instead he says what he did NOT do. He lists all the sins that he did not commit and the list does not leave any gaps. God on the other hand comes to show what he has done. He puts everything on display. He asks Job to consider and measure and inquire about EVERYTHING. And you know what? Job is comforted. Job knows. Job sees.

How? How is Job comforted? Job used to do the same thing back in the day. In chapter 29 it says that at the city gate the nobles and princes would gather together to sort out their disputes. Just imaging all these men. There was lots of talks and fuss. Maybe some arguing. Jockeying of authority, insight, and wisdom. But when Job showed up, everyone stopped. their tongues stuck to the roof of their mouths. They made way for him and he would take his place among them. Then he would speak. His words. Like rain. Their ears were blessed and their eyes approved. They would wait to hear everything he had to say. I verse 25 Job says "I chose their way and sat as chief, and lived like a king among his troops, like one who comforts mourners."

This is exactly what God does to him and his friends. God's words are like rain.

You are so fervent in your dispensation of the book of Job.

[taliacolley]

This is very easy to follow and held my attention. Looking forward to watching more videos.

[ytoal]

Very well done, thanks to the Ruach HaKodesh

[TryinBnice]

Powerful study of Job.
This was fantastic.

[samcohen]

Job is a shadow of Yeshua the suffering righteous servant

[peterhussey-yeo]

Remember that Job started sinning with his lips from chapter 3 onwards

[robertburke]

See a new breakthrough understanding of the Book of Job, a new Novel... "Where Do We Go Now, LORD? - Burke." Now, are church and seminary leaders open to higher ground? No? Moses was open to higher ground. Be like Moses. So seek and find this breakthrough! Enjoy!

[hollyd]

Dr. Randall, i enjoy your videos and studying alongside them. I noticed in this video on Job you didn't mention anything about God not rebuking/correcting Elihu...God did rebuke Eliphaz and his TWO friends but Elihu isnt mentioned by God. It would seem that Elihu's statements weren't incorrect - what do you think?

[thomastroxel]

Can we prove ourselves to God without any tests within our "Test"? Can we grow into something "Good", ...without ourselves "Learning from Problems" or "Situations caused by Problems"? ...Or "Creating Problems"? Or possibly "God raising us through using a "Wonderful World of Problems"? I really hope that my "Words" don't cause you any "Problems". But if they did, "Would it really be a Problem"? I honestly don't remember learning anything that didn't have something to do with a "Problem". Is that really a "Problem"??? ....God bless.

[emoney]

His hair is different keep like that Randy and great teaching.

[thangelad]

I can get onboard with Persecuted or One who has Enmity.

[biblestudy]

Job fell from the grace of God because he had a great fear that had grown through the years and thought he could keep it secret from God and God made him face his worst fear and overcome it ... a just man will fall seven times ... but will rise back up ... Job was a just man... Remember... Job said " the thing I feared the most is come upon me... that which I was afraid of is upon me"... You can't be close to God and have any fear in your heart... fear is the opposite of love... fear is what distances you from God ... from people ... Job was richly blessed in the end... he finally got something he always wanted in his heart.... he finally knew God

[thangelad]

What about the useless sentiment that people tell you when they say “it could be worse “ or “other people are dealing with a lot worse “?
