Thoughts: Job has suffered almost every possible loss – his children, his health, and his property.
Four “friends” have come to “comfort” him. Their idea of comforting consisted of sharp questioning and accusations of wrong-doing, until Job exclaimed, “Miserable comforters are ye all!” Now in chapter 38, God speaks directly to Job. “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?” And Job replies humbly, “I have uttered that I understood not, things too wonderful for me which I knew not.” Discussion: What do we discuss that we know not? Activity: Dazzle people by knowing the names of Job’s three daughters, who were the fairest in the land. John Wesley’s youngest sister was named for one of them.
