Job has decided that he deserves his punishment, and his rather gruesome afflictions, because he may have at some point not been quite nice enough to someone he was superior to.
And this is the best thing I've heard so far in Job: "The words of Job are ended." Does that mean something will actually happen now?

Date: 2010-07-19 04:30 pm (UTC)My parents separated when I was 10 and then Mum moved out with me and my brother about a year later.
In the years leading up to the separation it was incredibly upsetting to witness their progressively disintegrating relationship and that environment was not a place that children should be brought up in.
But 15 years on and Mum and Dad now have a amicable relationship and can be in the same room without screaming at each other and my brother and I are close to both of them.
So I totally agree that it is immoral to stay together for the sake of the kids. As long as the kids feel loved and wanted, divorce is definitely better for their sake.
