DAY 33 (Job 21-23): In the aftermath of Job's astonishing tragedy, a raging debate has broken out between him and his wise friends. Because God is always just, rewarding the righteous and punishing the wicked, it follows that Job's anguish must be proof that he has committed a grave offense against God. When Job protests his innocence, his friends take bitter offense, assuming Job is both lying and insulting God by insisting that God is punishing an innocent man. But Job isn't finished. He will take his argument a step further, pointing out not only does God allow the righteous to suffer, He also fails to punish the wicked.
