    In Job 34:37 where Elihu stated he addeth rebellion unto his sin, Elihu said that in addition to the sin which resulted in this calamity in his life, Job was in rebellion in not heeding the counsel of Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar that Job should repent. When Elihu said Job clappeth his hands...

    All of them ... Eliphaz, Bildad, Zophar, and Elihu told Job over and over to confess his sin to God and Job would be restored. None of them pointed out a specific sin ... they all spoke in generalities ... because there was no specific sin to point out. They all claimed Job needed to repent...

    Job 33:26-28 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness. He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not; He will deliver his soul...

    yes ... and interestingly enough, in reading through Eph 6, we generally stop at vs 17 and believe we are fully equipped to stand against the wiles of the devil. Why do we not include vs 18 (praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all...

    Good, because Job did not fail ... nor did Job curse God. That was Job's point throughout the whole ordeal. His friends accused Job of hiding secret sin and Job continuously denied their accusations. Job knew he had not sinned ... his friends did not believe him and kept calling him out for...

    In Job 1, when Job was victorious over satan's first attack, God stated In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly (Job 1:22). In Job 2, satan wanted another chance to prove to God that Job would curse God if God would put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and...

    I understand ... and I still do not agree with your source. Job was righteous in his own eyes (Job 32:1) ... which is why Job mentioned more than a few times that he wanted to talk to God to find out what was going on ... but I do not agree that Job accused "God of attacking him with terrifying...

    The scope of God's knowledge far exceeds our human capacity ... so no, I am not "ascribing to God a knowledge that is the same kind as human knowledge". Even in eternity when we know even as also we are known, God's omniscience will far exceed our capacity for knowing. God is the Creator ...
