Job Is Faithful to God

DO YOU feel sorry for this sick man? His name is Job, and the woman is his wife.  Do you know what she is saying to Job?   'Curse God and die.' Let's see why she would ever say a thing like that, and why Job suffered so much.

Job was a faithful man who obeyed Jehovah.  He lived in the land of Uz, not far from Ca'naan.  Jehovah loved Job very much, but there was someone who hated him. Do you know who?

It was Satan the Devil. Remember, Satan is the bad angel who hates Jehovah. He was able to get Adam and Eve to disobey Jehovah, and he thought he could get everybody else to disobey Jehovah too. But was he able to? No.  Just think of the many faithful men and women we have learned about. How many can you name?
