The Bible OverBrew - Bible in a Yearಮಾದರಿ

Week 32. Day 3. Job 19-25.

Remember that Job has been wanting to argue his case before God, but God feels to far and too distant, and there is no-one to help Job, and to mediate for him.

Now read 19:23-27! Job believes there is a redeemer in heaven who will plead his cause!

But this is a very partial and faint hope Job has at this point – the rest of our chapters today continue with Job protesting his innocence and his friends laying on the guilt and blame. The summary of the friends’ argument is in 25:4

"How then can a mortal be righteous before God?
How can one born of woman be pure?"

NOTE: Days 1-5 of each week contain the scripture reading for that week. Day 6 has just the 'key chapters'. If you want a briefer version of this plan that still takes you through the whole Bible, you could just read the key chapters featured on day 6. Day 7 has the podcast video where we discuss the week's reading.
