Mark A. Copeland
14) As he described the days gone by when he was respected by all, what things had he done?
(29:12-17)
- Delivered the poor and fatherless; caused the widow's heart to sing for joy
- Put on righteousness and justice like a robe and turban
- Provided eyes to the blind and feet to the lame
- Was a father to poor and searched out their case
- Broke the fangs of the wicked and plucked the victim from his teeth
15) In the present, though, who mocks him? (30:1)
- Young men whose fathers Job had disdained to put even with the dogs of his flock
16) As he draws near to the end of his discourse, what does Job cry out to God? (30:20-21)
- I cry out to You, but You do not answer
- You have become cruel to me; You oppose me with the strength of Your Hand
17) In summarizing his plight, what sort of things does he say? (30:26-31)
- I looked for good, evil came to me; I waited for light, then came darkness
- My heart is in turmoil and cannot rest; days of affliction confront me
- I go about mourning, I cry for help
- My skin grows black and falls from me; my bones burn with fever
18) What kind of covenant had Job made with his eyes? Why? (31:1-4)
- Not to look upon a young woman
- Does God not see his ways and count all his steps?
19) List the things that Job says would make him deserving of God's punishment (31:1-40)
- Walking with falsehood, or hastening to deceit
- Heart enticed by a woman, or lurking at his neighbor's door
- Despising the cause of his servants when they complained against him
- Keeping the poor from their desire
- Causing the eyes of the widow to fail
- Eating morsels so that the fatherless could not eat of it
- Seeing anyone perish for lack of clothing, or the poor without covering
- Failing to help the fatherless when it was in his power
- Making gold his hope and confidence; rejoicing over his great wealth
- Worshipping the sun or moon
- Rejoicing at the destruction of him who hated him
- Not providing food and opening his doors to the traveler
- Trying to hide his transgressions
- Eating off the land without compensation, causing its owners to lose their lives
20) What is Job's final request as he ends his words? (31:35)
- That he had someone to hear him
- That the Almighty would answer him
- That his Prosecutor had written a book
