Job 1:13-2:10
The physical suffering of Job
(2:7b-8) ‘and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes.’
Inflamed, ulcerous sores (2:7)
Persistent itching (2:8)
Facial disfiguration, skin (2:12)
Loss of appetite (3:24)
Fears and Depression (Job 3:25)
Sores that burst open, scab over, crack, and ooze with pus (7:5)
Worms that form in the sores themselves (7:5)
Difficulty breathing (9:18)
Darkening of the eyelid (16:16)
Foul breath (19:17)
Loss of weight (19:20, 33:21)
Excruciating, continual pain (30:27)
High fever with chills and discoloring of skin, anxiety and diarrhea (30:30)
A call to give up (Job 2:9)
His wife said to him, "Are you still holding on to your integrity? Curse God and die!"
“holding on to your integrity” = What God considered valuable
“Curse God and die” = What Satan wanted all along
He replied, "You are talking like a foolish woman…. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?"
Job 2:10b
In all this, Job did not sin in what he said.
