Job’s story is one of the oldest in the Bible, and his time period may very well connect with the Table of Nations listed in Genesis 10. Job was surrendered to God and His purposes, even though he didn’t understand why God was allowing all this suffering and disaster in his life. Job's wife, on the other hand, seemed to have lost all hope because of the circumstances that had befallen her family. Her perspective was limited to the "here and now.” She had no "eternal" perspective. Yet, God is calling us to have an eternal perspective. Have you lost heart in some aspect of your life? In the end, Job still didn't understand why all these things had happened to him but he recognized something very important. The stream of God's purpose had coursed through his life. If God's purpose in your life includes suffering, it is an opportunity to see Him.

Job’s story is one of the oldest in the Bible, and his time period may very well connect with the Table of Nations listed in Genesis 10. Of Noah’s three sons, the last, and most significant, was Shem. Through Shem’s five sons and their descendants, according to this record, come the people who came to inhabit the Middle East. Some of Shem’s descendants are highlighted below: Eber from which comes the word “Hebrew.” Abraham, who was really the founder of the Hebrew nation, was six generations beyond Eber, but is identified as an Eberite, or Hebrew. Elam—Southern Mesopotamia. Asshur—Assyria. Peleg—Who possibly lived during the time of Babel. “Peleg,” in Hebrew, means "Division," but in Greek it means "Sea." The word archipelago comes from archi (first) pelagos, (sea). The Greeks called the Aegean Sea "The Archipelago," the first sea, drawing the name from this man, Peleg. His time may very well have coincided with the Ice Age, when sea levels were very low and land bridges, as well as narrow archipelagoes, connected most of the continents. This time lasted for a very short period, and ended abruptly when the ice sheets rapidly melted and filled the sea. “The earth was divided” could have a double meaning of division of languages of the people of earth, dispersion of people groups over the earth, and division of the earth itself as the land bridges quickly disappeared.Two names possibly link Job to this time in history; Shem’s descendant Uz is also the place name of the land Job lived in (Job 1:1), and Shem’s descendant Jobab could be Job himself, who trusted God and loved Him regardless of his circumstances. Job was surrendered to God and His purposes, even though he didn’t understand why God was allowing all this suffering and disaster in his life. In the end, Job still didn't understand why all these things had happened to him but he recognized something very important. The stream of God's purpose had coursed through his life.
