The Biblical Illustrator - Job 42:12-17

Job 42:12-17So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job.The limitation of Job’s blessings to this lifeIs there not something incongruous in the large award of temporal good, and even something unnecessary in the renewed honour among men? To us it seems that a good man will be satisfied with the favour and fellowship of a loving God.

Job 42:15 And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. Ver. 15. And in all the land there were no women found so fair, &c. ] Beauty, though but a bonum fragile, and one of the gifts of God’s left hand, Proverbs 3:16 , yet is it the flower of virtue, as Chrysippus called it; one of the greatest excellencies of nature, and singular degree of God’s image in man, as another (Plato).

Job 42:16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, [even] four generations. Ver. 16.
