Job 22–32 | Tried Like Gold | Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible

Episode Description

In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Job with chapters 22 through 32 from the King James Version. Job’s friends press their arguments, while Job continues to long for an audience with God and to hold fast to his integrity.

These chapters include some of the most beautiful and memorable lines in the book: “when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold,” and “the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom.” We hear Job reflect on the mystery of God’s ways, the hiddenness of wisdom, the fleeting prosperity of the wicked, and his own desire to be heard.

As Job’s words come to a close, a new voice appears: Elihu, younger than the others, who has waited in silence before beginning to speak. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as we continue the One-Year Bible journey through Job chapters 22 to 32.
