Job 34 - Elihu Continues His Rebuke | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Job 34 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 34 Elihu continues the 18th and longest speech in the book of Job. He declares that he wants Job put on trial, but doesn’t realise Job has been on trial. His entire experience has been a test of his character. When we go through trials, our character IS being tested. This video considers the testing of our faith in Christ. Some consider this a “second speech” because it beings with a “Moreover.”

Job 33 - Elihu Rebukes Job and His Friends | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Job 33 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 33 the 18th and longest speech in the book of Job continues. Elihu finished introducing himself and his reasons for speaking in chapter 32 and now finally gets down to his argument.He says that the Spirit of God “compelled” him to speak. He makes the dangerous assumption that his words are from God. This video considers God’s thoughts in our minds we interpret as out own,, and our thoughts we interpret as Gods, and the overlap, complexity and danger of it all.

Job 31 & 32 - Job Asserts His Innocence | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Job 31 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 31 he now makes his final points in the book of Job before a long speech by Elihu and the final speech by God. Job maintains his innocence in a grand three-chapter long summation of his case, culminating here in a point by point argument about how he has done what is right. He begins by stating he has “made a covenant with my eyes” and would not look lustfully with his eyes. Even his motivations are pure it seems. This video will consider Job’s final case, the issue of what we look at, and what it means to be righteous on judgement day.

The Bible: Job Chapter 30

In this video listen to Job 30 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 30 his final speech continues as he summarises his case and in this chapter he talks about the time of distress that came upon him. This video considers the idea of a “time of distress” from a global perspective and observes that the entire world and its people are currently in a “time of distress” that began when sin entered the world, and will conclude when every enemy has been destroyed. In one sense the book of Job is a picture of all of humanity and the experience of those who trust God.

The Bible: Job Chapter 28

In this video listen to Job 28 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.In Job 28 we have an “ode to wisdom” where Job has now moved from speaking directly to Bildad, and now attempts to teach all of his friends how to acquire wisdom. Job 28 is unlike any other chapter among the human speeches of Job and is undoubtedly my (David Alley’s) favourite chapter spoken by Job. It is also a high point of wisdom literature coming out of ancient times. Job asks if wisdom can be mined. Or can wisdom be purchased? Or can wisdom be found? Where does one acquire wisdom and how?

Job 27 - Job Maintains His Integrity | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Job 27 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 27 he continues his six chapter reply to Bildad, which morphs into a reply to all his “friends.” Some experts believe that this is a mislabelled speech by Zophar, but this video will explain how that cannot be the case.

The Bible: Job Chapter 26

In this video listen to Job 26 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 26 he starts a reply to his friend Bildad which ends up being a six chapter speech. In this speech a number of things occur, as he starts by addressing Bildad in person, then merges to addressing all of his friends as a group, and even attempts to start teaching them wisdom. In this video we contemplate the mysterious sea dragon Rahab that Job mentions. We also contemplate how Job knew that the earth hung unsupported in space. This video also answers the question about whether this book had Babylonian myth stories as background context.

The Bible: Job Chapter 25

In this video listen to Job 25 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 25 is the sixteenth and the shortest speech in the book of Job. It seems Job’s friends are running out of things to say, and the heart to say them. This chapter is one of the ten shortest chapters in the Bible. Bildad asks just a handful of rhetorical questions, which have implied answers. For example he asks, “can he born of a woman be clean?” Surprisingly the answer is that despite the obvious no… there was one born of a woman who was clean, and that was Christ. In this last of the speeches from the friends, we consider Christ. We then consider the three great speeches that are to follow and finalise the book of Job, a six chapter speech by Job, a second six chapter speech by Elihu and the final word by God, taking five chapters.

In this video listen to Job 24 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Job 24 Job’s third reply to Eliphaz continues, and he questions why God doesn't have a day of judgement…. but of course he does. In this video we consider Job’s words, and also the two judgements to come, the great white throne judgement, and the bema seat judgement.
