Job Bible
The Job Bible illustrations on this page deal with the beginnings of Job's trials. Job was the chief citizen in the region where he lived. He acted as a sort of judge among his neighbors, deciding their disputes. He was noted not only for wisdom and power, but for his charity. Job's prosperity seemed to suggest that he was specially favored of Heaven for his goodness.
The first blow inflicted upong Job affected his cattle. A band of marauders attacked the herdsmen, slew them, and drove away the cattle. A second disaster occured when lightning blasted Job's entire mass of seven thousand sheep, consuming them in one huge flame and also destroying their shepherds. Thirdly, a band of Chaldean men attacked the keepers of the camels, kiling them and driving the camels away. Then a fourth messenager arrived to report that Job's ten children had all perished as the result of a dread whilrwind and typhoon. Yet even in the face of that last, most awful sorrow, Job did not fail the Lord, His wealth gone, most of his servants slain, his beloved chilren dead, Job still turned to God with submissive reverence.
