And watch, he'll fall and make their own.

He'll curse God the minute he loses his material wealth.

And so he's using Job as an exhibit to make his point, his case to show that, look, and this is what he says, that if you take his things from him, he'll curse you.

So I think the bigger picture, and I think that's why oftentimes people say, well,

God didn't really explain to Job in the end exactly what was going on.

You know, he never says, hey, listen, I want you to know in the beginning there was a day when Satan came up with the sons of God to heaven and we had a conversation.

He never tells him that because

I think on the cosmic level, he was a piece of, he was evidence.

He wasn't, the message wasn't for him.

It was being delivered at a much higher level to the angelic realm, who again, who scripture tells are looking and trying to understand our salvation and what's happened to human civilization.

Because God is saying, I'm going to show that my way is true.

And those who believe in me and trust in me

are doing it out of love, out of belief, out of faith, not out of fear, not out of compulsion, and my way is right in the end.

And so I think that's why Job is never even told because he's just part of this bigger trial that's taking place for the fate of humanity and heaven and earth, really.

Yeah, amen, absolutely.

I think he just found a great similitude type in Shadow, absolutely, right?

And in the end, you know, his blessing is, you know, he has twice of whatever, everything he had before.

So, you know, like he's now in the eternal kingdom, so to speak, metaphorically.

It's interesting.

Yeah, well, I think it has to be divine knowledge.
