Job 3:26

"I am not at ease, nor am. quiet, and. am not at rest, but turmoil comes": Job is definitely not at peace and neither is he content (Philippians 4:10-13).

Closing Comments

· Here Job voices not the injustice of his condition, but the agony of it.

· We must never underestimate the pressures and trials that can come upon us. We must prepare ourselves spiritually for the ups and downs of life (1 Corinthians 10:12).

· Job's impatience is written, not for our imitation, but for our learning (Romans 15:4).

· Let us also remember that this chapter, as well as others in the book, record exactly what Job and his friends said and is the product of inspiration (2 Timothy 3:16), but the human speakers themselves are not inspired. That is, God is not speaking through Job in this chapter and neither is He speaking through his friends (Job 42), for at the end of the book God rebukes Job and his friends.
