Character studies on people in the Bible can be fascinating. Take Joseph - he was a forerunner for Jesus in many respects, and shares of the characteristics of Jesus. Moses the prince, became a shepherd, and not a good speaker, but became one of the greatest leaders of all time.

David, according to legend, was a illitimate child, and was to be killed, saved to be a shepherd, doomed to become a lunatic and a drain on society. Beating the odds, he became the greatest king, poet, warrior of all time - and the forefather of Jesus the Messiah.

Job is also a creature of immense interest. A very difficult book to read and understand - it was about quite a few of the most intelligent beings of all time, YHWH Elohim, the Accuser, Job and his four friends. Complex arguments, and one can easily be drawn to one or the other. And in essence YHWH stands in the dock as He instigated the accuser by boasting about the righteous Job, obviously a thorn in the flesh of the Evil One. And He accepts the charge that Satan instigated Him to do damage to Job. Whao. 

But follow the below. I have tried to remove all the fluff and consentrate on the essentials. Whether I have managed - I leave that for you to decide. But please see whether you can discover the obvious yet most hidden secret in Job - it is a shock, and scary (when the mirror turns our way) but it is also one of the scriptures that gives us deep insight into the character of man, the charater of YHWH - His mercy and longsuffering.

And then in the end, one of the most beautiful, hopeful and upbuilding pieces of literature right at the end of Job.
