Job 24:15 The eye of the adulterer watches for twilight,    Think, ‘No one will recognize me’,       He masks his face.   When I think of masks, I think of thieves and burglars. When I think of thieves and burglars, I think of women who go about with their faces hidden all day. And… Continue reading Study of Job 24:15 – #579 Who Sees Me?

Job 24:14 The murderer rises at dusk,    To kill the poor and the indigent,       At night, acts as the thief.   There is a phrase about putting childish ways away. My in-laws are past that stage. They may not see it yet, but they have gotten to that stage where they need more… Continue reading Study of Job 24:14 – #578 Murderous Sin of Omission

Job 24:13 They are those who rebel against the light,    Who will not know its ways,       Nor abide in its path.   I found for sure that a card I recently overpaid for was one I got a cheaper version of later. I may not have overpaid for this one card as I… Continue reading Study of Job 24:13 – #577 Rebel

Job 24:12 In terror, the dying groan,    Screaming from those mortally wounded,       Yet, God attributes no regard.   I read where Apple is burying AI in everything it can in the next iphone operating system. My guess is that it is trying to be helpful, but obviously in a way that makes them… Continue reading Study of Job 24:12 – #576 Screaming in the Night

Job 24:11 Among rows of olive trees, they press oil out,    They tread the wine vats, yet remain thirsty.   When the song ‘Choosin’ Texas’ came out, it was immediately one of my favorites. A good bit later it has been the number 1 song on the charts for longer than any other. I… Continue reading Study of Job 24:11 – #575 Paying Workers vs. Making Money

Job 24:10 For lack of clothing, they go about naked,    Hungry, they carry the sheaves.   Imagine that you were so poor you had no more of anything, even clothes. You would probably have traded your clothes for food and slept out in the open with nothing. This is not the homeless too cheap… Continue reading Study of Job 24:10 – #574 Poorest of the Poor

Job 24:9 The fatherless are snatched from the breast,    Taken as a pledge from the poor.   Some days, I know what I want to write about before I read; other days I read and know what I want to say; and today, I have no idea. I do not like the idea behind… Continue reading Study of Job 24:9 – #573 Anti-Charity

Job 24:8 Drenched by the mountain rains,    Lacking shelter, clinging to the rocks.   Days like today make we want to not have to work anymore. When Obama care passed, there was a chance for it to help people like me who wanted to have access to affordable care while not working and not… Continue reading Study of Job 24:8 – #572 Shelter

Job 24:7 At night, they lie naked without clothes,    With no covering in the cold.   This passage seems to take turns talking about the wicked and how they treat the poor without clarity of whom is being spoken about. I think this verse is about how the wicked treat the poor causing them… Continue reading Study of Job 24 :7 – #571 Naked
