V.1-10 In God’s presence again, Satan says that if he were allowed to touch Job’s body, he would curse Him. The Lord allows Satan to go further. God controls how for Satan can go in attacking us. Satan was not allowed to kill Job.
V.11-13 Job’s three friends hear of the disasters, and come to visit him. Notice what they did for seven days! What a sight Job must have been. Your mind is possibly full of thoughts as to why God would be so unkind to Job when he was so good. If you are reasoning like that, then it may be that the Lord has a message for you too. Many of us are very thankful that the Lord has spoken to us through Job.
