| But sometimes it seems to... |
Zophar here starts off with the assumption that Job is a liar. How did Zophar go from a man who would sit with his friend in mourning to calling him a liar is amazing. However, as we have mentioned before Zophar responded without seeking God and used the wisdom he had obtained. As mentioned before and with this week's reading in Proverbs bears out, Zophar seems right. Most of what Zophar is saying sounds, as if, it was put directly into the book of Proverbs (remember this was written first). We see in Job life lived out in a broken world, in a world where Proverbs fail and good people see bad happen.
Let's not be quick to judge.
