Spanish
Sabbath, January 13 – Job 13, 14.

Study questions:
    1. Job qualifies his friends as “useless doctors”. Why do you think he gave them that qualification? Job 13:4
    2. How did Job come to trust in God in the midst of his difficult situation? Could we say the same as him? Job 13:15.
    3. In his confession to God, Job pours out his soul before God. In what sense do his expressions resemble those of David, later, in Psalm 51? Job 13:21-28
    4. How does Job describe the fragility of human life? Job 14:1-6
    5. When, says Job, will the man who dies be able to rise again? Job 14:7-12
    6. With what words does Job show his confidence in his liberation? Job 14:14, 15
    7. How does Job assure that the dead will have no knowledge in the grave? Job 14:21.

Commentary and reflection:
The suffering patriarch confronts his friends showing his implicit trust in God. He recognizes his inability to be righteous by himself but cries out to the Almighty for help. Job asks God to shorten his life through death, although life, once lost, is irrecoverable. If a tree is cut down, if its root remains in the ground, it can sprout again. Can man sprout back after death? In this rhetorical question, Job shows his belief in the mortality of man. There is no consciousness in death, but there is hope. Job believes in the resurrection, when God will display his creating, life giving power and will reward with life eternal those who trusted in His mercy.

About the daily reading of the Bible, Sister White says,
“The heart that receives the word of God is not as a pool that evaporates, not like a broken cistern that loses its treasure. It is like the mountain stream, fed by unfailing springs, whose cool, sparkling waters leap from rock to rock, refreshing the weary, the thirsty, the heavy-laden. It is like a river constantly flowing and, as it advances, becoming deeper and wider, until its life-giving waters are spread over all the earth”. PR 233.
May God bless you abundantly today.
