Job bemoans his former prosperityJob The name "Job" is derived from the Hebrew name "Iyyov," which means "persecuted" or "hated." Job is a central figure in the Book of Job, known for his unwavering faith amidst severe trials. His account is a profound exploration of human suffering and divine sovereignty. Job's character is often seen as a type of Christ, representing innocence and righteousness in the face of unjust suffering. continued his discourse (1) Job continued his parable.--In this chapter he recounts wistfully his past happiness. In his case it was indeed not without cause, though in point of fact he was then passing through a time of trial which was itself bringing fast on his time of deliverance, and which was to make his name famous throughout the world and in all time. And in most similar cases we have need to bear in mind the words of Solomon (Ecclesiastes 7:10): "Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this." Verses 1-25. - From these deep musings upon the nature of true wisdom, and the contrast between the ingenuity and cleverness of man and the infinite knowledge of God, Job turns to another contrast, which he pursues through two chapters (ch. 29. and 30.) - the contrast between what he was and what he is - between his condition in the period of his prosperity and that to which he has been reduced by his afflictions. The present chapter is concerned only with the former period; and gives a graphic description of the life led, in Job's time and country, by a great chieftain, the head of a tribe, not of mere nomads, but of perseus who had attained to a considerable amount of civilization. The picture is one primitive in its features, but not rude or coarse. It is entirely un-Jewish, and has its nearest parallel in some of the early Egyptian records, as the Stele of Beka, and the Instructions of Amen-em-hat ('Records of the Past,' vol. 2. pp. 11-16; vol. 10. pp. 7-10).
