0:00.0 | Hey Bible Readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:07.0 | Today's reading landed us about 400 years post-flood and we met a man named Job. |
0:17.0 | Initially he sounds a lot like Noah. He's blameless, and upright, and fears God. |
0:22.0 | In Noah's story things got really dark then there was some relief at the end and not to give spoilers but we'll see the same type of thing playing out in Job's story. |
0:30.0 | Based on our conversation from day two you may have noticed that Job 1-6 referred to the Angels as Sons of God, including Satan who in his created form is an angel. |
0:41.0 | In Job 1-8, God initiates a conversation about Job with Satan. One thing worth noting here, the |
0:48.8 | word Satan means adversary, one who resists, accuser. |
0:53.0 | There's some debate about this, |
0:55.0 | but many people believe Satan is not necessarily a proper name that refers to one being, |
1:00.0 | but that it's a general term referring to God's adversary in this instance a fallen angel who opposes God's reign |

1:29.0 | So there are a lot of Satan's. |
1:31.0 | And I think if I were to pronounce that word correctly it would be |
1:34.5 | satan but I'm not gonna try to get too weird here. After God initiates the |
1:39.1 | conversation about Job with one of his enemies the enemy can cs a plan to test Job and we see God allowing it. |
1:46.1 | Here's what's noteworthy to me in this section. God didn't create the plan for testing Job, |
1:51.2 | but he allowed it. He wasn't the active agent in the evil |
1:54.8 | perpetrated by Satan, but he was still sovereign over it. And in his mercy, |
2:00.0 | he limited it. Satan was on a leash. He was not allowed to take Job's life. |
2:06.0 | Satan attacked Job in a variety of ways. In 111 through 19, we saw that his losses came twice as acts of |
