Actually it is kind of on topic. Job answers several spiritual questions. Job references ghost that inhabit the waters. Granted the source is one of Job's pagan friends.
None! Job's children just got together to celebrate family member birthday celebrations. The 'every one his day' was their birthday. (Later Job curses his own birthday by those that 'raise leviathan'.) Job was making sure that his children were covered for any sin they committed while celebrating. I would assume there was drinking involved. He was just making a sin offering in case they committed some sin. Some see that as fear on Job's part, but IMO he is just doing what was prudent.Why do ya think this information was given?
Job 1:4-5
4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
KJV
Do you see any relation to what the information given in the next verses?
some see "ghost" everywhere.
After asking for the thread to stay on topic, what was the meaning of your post here ?some see "ghost" everywhere.
What do ya think it was that Job feared.
Whatever it was he said it had come upon him!
Job 3:25
For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me , and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. KJV
What Job feared is revealed in the first chapter verse 5.
Job feared that his sons had sinned.
Because Job feared that his sons had sinned he continually offered burnt-offerings for them.
You think Job was afraid of God and God "whacked" Job
Job 3:25
For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. KJV
The thing that Job feared that came upon him was the fear he had for his children.
He was afraid It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts.
Job was so afraid "Thus did Job continually".
Job did not trust God where his children were concerned.
Job 1:5
And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually. KJV
Job 2:3, God states He caused harm to Job without cause.
Job 9:17, Job states God harmed him without cause.
I suggest you look at it closer. Yah is saying HaSatan is moving Yah to harm Job, not that Yah is the source of that harm but the desire of HaSatan. HaSatan is trying to get Job to fall into sin so Yah will harm him. Has Job sinned at this point? No.Job 2:3, God states He caused harm to Job without cause.
You need to go back to the Interlinear. Here Job uses a different word translated as 'God'. He uses 'Elowahh' not 'Elohyim'. He uses 'Elohyim' when he is referencing 'God' not 'Elowahh'.Job 9:17, Job states God harmed him without cause.
Job was so afraid "Thus did Job continually".
