When I first started reading all the way through the Bible,I would dread coming to the Book of Job- it seemed like I always got more depressed reading it, or bad things would happen• but as I came to a better understanding of Job, I began to enjoy reading it• I see Job as the hero of all who suffer–innocently- Job stood up for himself – against his friends – against his culture• he even stood up to God – of course, he didn’t win that one◦ but he didn’t lose either• his complaint here: “What’s the point of making and caring for me, just to tear me apart?”◦ note the poetic description of his fetal gestation in verse 11
