ヨブ記 1:9 JC

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Job 1:6-12

Satan given Permission to Afflict Job v. 6. Now, there was a day when the sons of God, God's own holy spirits, the angels ministering unto Him, came to present themselves before the Lord, the picture being that of a great monarch who daily assembles his ministers and servants about him, and Satan, the great adversary of God and men, came also among them. Although condemned to the chains of hell, the devil, as the prince of this world, has as much freedom as the Lord permits him to have,... read more

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTIONPROLOGUEJob 1:1-22, Job 2:1-131. Job’s Character and Course of Life. (Job 1:1-15.)1There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. 2And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters. 3His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Job 1:1-12

Satan Aims at a High Mark Job 1:1-12 Job is introduced as a man of large possessions, highly honored by all who knew him, and of unimpeachable integrity toward God. His piety was specially evinced in the anxiety he experienced for his children, lest any of them should renounce or say farewell to God. What an example this is for parents! We should pray for each child by name, and, like Job, we should do so continually. Satan is well called the Adversary, r.v., margin, because he opposes God... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Job 1:1-22

In magnificence of argument and beauty of style this Book is one of the grandest in the divine Library. The story of Job is presented in dramatic form. It opens with a picture of Job. He is seen in three respects: first, as to character. The opening verses declare him to be "perfect and upright, and one that feared God and eschewed evil." The language is simple, and suggests that high integrity which never fails to command respect. In the second place, he is seen in the midst of his home... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Job 1:6-12

Job 1:6-2 Kings : . The disinterestedness of Job’ s piety is brought into question by the Satan in the council of heaven. We are now to see how misfortune may come absolutely unprovoked by sin. The sons of God, who come to present themselves before Yahweh, are the angels. They are referred to in Job 38:7 as witnesses of the creation. In Psalms 29:1 (see RVm) they appear as ministers of God’ s heavenly temple. Here they form the court and council of Yahweh. For a similar scene in heaven, cf.... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Job 1:9

i.e. Sincerely and freely, and out of pure love and respect to thee? No. It is policy, not piety, that makes him good; he doth not serve thee, but serveth himself of thee, and is a mere mercenary, serving thee for his own ends. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Job 1:6-12

NotesJob 1:11. “And he will curse thee to thy face.” (Margin: “If he curse thee not.”) The clause susceptible of a variety of interpretations. The two particles at the commencement אִם לֹא (im lo) “if not,” variously rendered and understood. By most they are regarded as expressive of an oath; with the rest of the form of imprecation understood; as, “may I perish,” or such like; i.e., “if he will not curse thee,” &c. So VATABLUS, PISCATOR, HUFNAGEL, and ZOCKLER, who makes the expression... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Job 1:6-12

Job 1:6-12 I. The introduction of Satan into the scene before us illustrates the problem of the book of Job. This wonderful, and perhaps most human of all books, evidently discusses the problem of suffering, of evil in the world, especially in its relation to man; and Satan, as a malignant person, is seen to be the author of the evil which Job suffers. Satan appears here in the character in which he is constantly represented throughout the Bible; he is the accuser of the brethren; he is the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Job 1:8-9

Job 1:8-9 Among the mysteries of God's providence there is perhaps no mystery greater than the law by which suffering is meted out in the world. It is not a mystery that sin should bring forth sorrow; it is not a mystery that pain, disease, and death should be the fruit of man's fall. The really difficult problem is not the problem of suffering in the abstract; it is the problem of the meting out of suffering on any theory; it is the problem why the innocent are called upon to suffer while the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Job 1:9

Job 1:9 I. Selfishness is not the essence of human nature as presented in the Bible. Satan denies that there is unselfishness in Job, who is described as a "righteous man, who feared God and eschewed evil." He would imply that it is not in God's power to create a disinterested love of Himself even in a regenerate creature; that self-interest is the hidden worm at the root of everything, good or bad. (1) Think, first, of the regenerate man, and see whether God's plan of forming him proceeds on... read more
