0:00.0	Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:12.5	Today's reading landed us about 400 years post-flood, and we met a man named Job.
0:17.7	Initially, he sounds a lot like Noah. He's blameless and upright and fears God. In Noah's story,
0:23.2	things got really dark. Then there was some relief at the end, and not to give spoilers,
0:27.4	but we'll see the same type of thing playing out in Job's story. Based on our conversation from
0:32.1	day two, you may have noticed that Job 1-6 referred to the angels as sons of God, including Satan who, in his
0:39.4	created form, is an angel. In Job 1-8, God initiates a conversation about Job with Satan.
0:46.7	One thing worth noting here, the word Satan means adversary, one who resists, accuser.
0:53.2	There's some debate about this, but many people believe
0:56.0	Satan is not necessarily a proper name that refers to one being, but that it's a general
1:01.1	term referring to God's adversary, in this instance a fallen angel who opposes God's reign.
1:07.6	Later in scripture, we have references to a specific fallen angel named Lucifer, but there's
1:12.5	reason to believe that the word Satan doesn't always refer specifically to Lucifer. There are many
1:17.7	fallen angels who are God's adversaries. In fact, a lot of people believe that Revelation 12
1:22.9	indicates that one-third of all the angels God created ended up rebelling against him and were cast from heaven,
1:29.1	so there are a lot of Satan's. And I think if I were to pronounce that word correctly, it would be satan.
1:35.6	But I'm not going to try to get too weird here. After God initiates the conversation about Job
1:40.3	with one of his enemies, the enemy concocks a plan to test Job, and we see God allowing it.
1:46.2	Here's what's noteworthy to me in this section. God didn't create the plan for testing Job,
1:51.3	but he allowed it. He wasn't the active agent in the evil perpetrated by Satan, but he was still
1:57.1	sovereign over it. And in his mercy, he limited it. Satan was on a leash. He was not
2:03.8	allowed to take Job's life. Satan attacked Job in a variety of ways. In 11-19, we saw that his
