JOB 23: “Job Will Pursue the Lord”

Job 23:1-7- Summary
We see Job is bitter and his chief complaint is his inability to connect with God. Job is feeling he has failed before the Lord. Job continues to feel desperate, and his friends made him feel worse both mentally and spiritually, Job is full of agony at this point. And with all the catastrophic event happening to Job, he could not find any comfort in the Lord.

Notes for Job 23:1-3: According to the commentary of the Orthodox Study Bible on vv. 1-3: In the midst of affliction, the righteous know God by faith, but long all the more to see His form. Christ will take the form of fallen men and fulfill Job's desires (GrgGt).

Job 23:8-9: (Notes): According to the commentary of the Orthodox Study Bible on vv. 1-3: In the midst of affliction, the righteous know God by faith, but long all the more to see His form. Christ will take the form of fallen men and fulfill Job's desires (GrgGt).

Job 23:10-12: (Notes): Job is showing confidence, and similarly, the Virgin Mary has also hidden many things in her heart ❤️- (see Luke 2:19)

Luke 2:19
But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.

Job 23:13-17: This was the closing quote: Ending Quote from "MASON"

i. “Job’s strongest assertions of faith seem always to be coupled with equally strong assertions of fear and pain. In this chapter his confidence in his own righteousness is more unassailable than ever, yet at the same time ‘thick darkness covers’ his face and he is filled with dread. Somehow Job’s faith is elastic enough to embrace simultaneously both terror and confidence.” (Mason)

Numbers 6:24-26
“The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
26 The Lord [a]lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.”’
