(Q's and A's to come later)
The thing that struck me most about these two chapters was the very end of chapter 2 when Job's friends, Eliphaz and Bildad, came to comfort him. The men ended up sitting with Job on the ground for seven days and nights in complete silence. Not a word! I just try to picture this awful situation, Job's sorrow, and the deep meditation that he sunk into because everything else had been stripped away. That isn't really the main idea of Job's story, but I can't get this out of my head.
Yes, this was an interesting end to the chapter. I wonder what Job's friends' reactions were to the misfortune placed upon Job. I wonder if they thought like Job or if they thought like Job's wife. Based on future questions that I've seen from our sheet I think we might be filled in about this topic soon.
