Job 23-28

Job 23 Job seeks the Lord and asserts his own righteousness—He says, When the Lord has tried me, I will come forth as gold.

Job 24 Murderers, adulterers, those who oppress the poor, and wicked people in general often go unpunished for a little while.

Job 25 Bildad bemoans the lowly state of man and classifies him as a worm.

Job 26 Job reproves Bildad’s lack of empathy—He extols the power, greatness, and strength of the Lord.

Job 27 Job asserts his righteousness—When the wicked are buried in death, terrors will take hold of them.

Job 28 Wealth comes out of the earth—Wisdom cannot be purchased—The fear of the Lord is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding.
