Job 42 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations prefer to set apart extended quotations, prayers, or songs. The ULB and many other English translations set the lines of 42:1-6, which is an extended quotation of Job, farther to the right on the page than the rest of the text.

Having faced the temptation to curse Yahweh, and after being rebuked by him, in the end Job shows his complete trust in Yahweh. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/tempt, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/curse and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/trust)

Special concepts in this chapter

Justice

Yahweh enacts justice at the end of this book. He punishes Job's friends and restores Job's blessings. Yahweh's blessing was not dependent upon Job's repentance, but upon Yahweh's grace. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/justice, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/restore, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/bless, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/repent and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/grace)
