Job 13-14

  • Job says to his friends that he knows what they are talking about but tells them that they don't appreciate his position. He says what they have said does not appropriately apply to his case. Tells them their best wisdom is to shut up! (13:1-5)
  • He holds his case that he has not been partial, not even quietly (v6-10)
  • He still thinks he has a non-losable case before God. All he pleads is God not been clouded by unrighteous smears against him. (v16-18)

  • Job asks for God to leave him alone. Life is short, it is going to end soon anyway.
  • Although he is know it is going to end, he acknowledge God determines when life ends (v5), so he has not asked for death. He has only asked for shelter for all the pains he has going through (v13-14)
