Contemplative Bible Reading

Job 42:12-13 (New Living Translation)

12 So the Lord blessed Job in the second half of his life even more than in the beginning. For now he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 teams of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. 13 He also gave Job seven more sons and three more daughters.

Throughout the (hi)story of Job, we are told of how his friends gave him bad advice and his wife…whoa, his wife. She told him to curse God.

How did Job’s life end? He had ten more children. We aren’t told the details, but it seems that Job had ten more children with this same woman.

Seems like Job loved his wife.
