Day 150: RETRIBUTION, Injustice, and Perplexity in Job 20-21 | Bible In A Year (CSB)

On Day 150 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we cover Job 20-21. Zophar asserts that the wicked always face swift destruction, implying Job’s guilt. Job counters by observing that the wicked often prosper, challenging simplistic views of divine justice and deepening the mystery of his suffering.Questions:1. Zophar’s speech in chapter 20 insists the wicked face immediate ruin—how does his rigid perspective challenge us to consider the complexity of God’s justice and the danger of assuming we fully understand His ways?2. Job’s observation in chapter 21 that the wicked often thrive—how might this honest struggle prompt us to reflect on the tension between apparent injustice in the world and trust in God’s ultimate righteousness?3. Job’s questioning of divine fairness in chapter 21, yet refusal to curse God—how does his persistence invite us to wrestle with maintaining faith when God’s actions seem incomprehensible, pointing to Christ’s trust in suffering?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
