The Young Man Elihu

October 27, 2019 • John Morrison • Job 32—37

Elihu has waited patiently while the older friends have said their peace, but he cannot sit by another minute and listen to their advice or interpretation of this tragedy. Elihu wants them all to hear what he has to say. He thinks that they have all been wrong. As you study, notice what observations he repeats and what is a new information. Does he have the right take on the situation? Or have they ALL "missed the boat?"

October 20, 2019 • John Morrison • Job 23—31

Job restates his request to deal directly with God and gives his idea of what seems "fair," in other words, what he would do if he was God.
