Jó 1
Ishodad of Merv
Jó 1:4-5
"Job would sanctify them," that is, Job purified them through the waters of cleansing and through the sacrifices that he offered for them. And since the righteous man had full confidence in the fact that his children were free from manifest sins, thanks to the education and instruction which he had given them, he offered sacrifices for their secret sins and thoughts by saying, "It may be that my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." — COMMENTARY ON JOB 1:5
Jó 1:6
There was never a special meeting where Satan dared to speak, to formulate questions and receive answers—nothing of the sort—but these facts are reported in a narrative style for the edification of the listeners.… They never took place in reality, and here the devil did not address God or pose questions; Satan never had the faculty to speak to God or to see him who is the one that "the creatures of fire and spirit" cannot see, but [the devil] meditated in his heart, and God, "who searches the hearts and examines the mind," knew the devil's malice. — COMMENTARY ON JOB 1:6
