Job 1:2-19

Majesty

• Defined: "unrivaled in might"
  • grandeur and glory + power and authority
• Majesty in the mundane (Job 1:2-5)
• Majesty amid tragedy (Job 1:13-19)
  • Is God good? (Job 1:9-10)
  • Is God powerful? (Job 1:11-12)
• Majesty over spiritual forces (Job 2:3-6)

Trust His Sufficiency

• In tragedy (Job 1:20-22)
• In abandonment (Job 2:9-10)
• In accusation (Job 22:1-11)
• In silence

Job ultimately reorients around an even greater encounter of majesty (Job 42:1-6)

Final Question

• Can God really be all that majestic if He lets an innocent man suffer?
  • There is only ONE innocent sufferer
  • He restores not with what was but something more (the foretaste of resurrection)
