LANCE WILLIAMS, Owner. :
THOMAS CARLYLE, a crusty
dyspeptic but a literary artist
of no small skill, was visiting a
Christian friend. In the morning
at family prayers
(so the story goes)
his host put into
his hands a copy
of the Bible and
asked him to read
a chapter. Carlyle
opened at the first
chapter of Job;
read it read on to
the next and the
next and the next
and refused to
stop reading till he had finished
all 42 chapters.
Job is like that. It is a book
you hate to put down! In all the
Bible it is the outstanding example
I of the drama; a drama of conflict
I in which the opposing forces are
not people as much as ideas.
I The Characters
THE characters at first are three:
God. Satan and a man named
Job. Job is a good man, In fact God
calls him perfect. He is also pros
perous, and thereby hangs the tale.
For one fateful day God and Satan
have a conversation about this man.
The Lord inquires if Satan has seen
him, and how good he is. Oh yes,
Satan says airily, he has seen him,
but he does not think highly of his
"goodness." He is too well paid
for it. He has a large and happy
family, and has immense wealth;
why. shouldn't he be good? Take
away his prosperty and he will
curse you to your face, Satan
sneers.
So God lets Satan work his
malice on the man. In a ter
rible series of disasters, one
rushing on another's heels,
everything Job has owned van
ishes. Bus children are killed
by storm and fire, and Job is
left a childless, penniless man.
But Job will not complain; his
faith In God still does not waver.
So when next Satan reports to
God, the Almighty asks again: Did
you see my servant Job? He holds
fast to his integrity. Ah, yes, sneers
the unbelieving fiend. Yes, but he
still has his health. He can have
another family, another fortune.
Make life itself so miserable that
he will long to die, and then you
will see his goodness vanish, then
he surely will curse you to your
face.
So God let Satan do his worst
Do all you can to him, God says,
only leave him alive.x And then Job
Is made horribly and painfully ill,
he cannot sleep for the torture of
boils covering him from head to
foot Three of his friends come to
visit him. For seven days they sit
In silence, and then begins a great
debate, with Job on one side and
his friends on the other: Why must
such things be? Why must good
'people suffer?
Was Job Real?
DON'T ask: Was Job a real char
acter, or a made-up one like
Hamlet and Macbeth? It is very
likely there was once upon a time
some man by that name who suf
fered in that way, and that he had
friends, not too sympathetic, who
talked it over with him.
As Hamlet and Macbeth were his
torical characters, whom Shakes
peare used with high art to express
.profound ideas, so the author of
Job may well have used the trials
of some man he knew, or knew of,
to express truths about a problem
as profound and widespread as the
human race.
For Job most surely is real:
his local name may be Smith
or Jones, and he may be living
Just around the corner from
-"you. Indeed, sooner or later
every man's name Is Job.
Sooner or later, every thought
ful person has to face the
tragedy of human sufteringf"
Why must such things be?
Suffering Is Test
'"PHERE is, however, one solution
A which comes out in the course
of the drama. It is not a theoretical
solution; that is, it does not alto
gether answer the question, WHY
must men suffer? It does tell us
WHAT we can do about it.
Suffering is a test: A test of
man's faith and real goodness.
"When be hath tried me, I shall
come forth as gold," Job says.
(23:10.) The test of a ship is
not the quiet waters of the har
bor but the roaring; open sea;
the test of a, man Is not comfort
hut stress and pain.
To have faith In God only when
we are well-fed and softly cushioned
Is not. faith at Its best. Faith and
goodness prove their reality only:
when they hold together even when
torn by the nails of a cross. .
