@rkainmdiv (The Stanley GIF 😂) - Have you ever ONCE commanded the morning sun to rise? What is the way to the dwelling of light? Oh, you don't know?! TYPICAL!... (Job 38:12-19) #GodAttack #JobvGod

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

@TheQueerPastor @GretaG_ETSit @MusingMomDiv Oh yeah? Who was it who helped the poor, the orphans and the unassisted? Who made the heart of a widow joyful? Not you, you absent Father! That was all ME! (Job 29:12-13) #JobAttack #JobvGod

@MusingMomDiv, is life on earth not the WORST? A pandemic, privatized healthcare, children going hungry... I am filled with restlessness until the dawn, worrying about this strife God has bestowed on us! (Job 7:1-4) #JobAttack #JobvGod

@GretaG_ETSit @MusingMomDiv @TheQueerPastor @TheQueerPastor Troublesome comforters, all of you! Is there no end to your diatribe of bombastic b&lls*%t? Are you all just sick in the head?! (Job 16:2-3) #JobAttack #JobvGod

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

@rkainmdiv @tryinthis_again So you're telling me that you'd rather die at birth than comprehend the breadth of the earth, or discover the way to to light? Job, you're really a piece of work... *rolls eyes* (Job 38:18-19) #GodAttack #JobvGod

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

@MusingMomDiv You, @GretaG_ETSit & @TheQueerPastor - why do you spend yourselves in empty words?! You must realize God's descendants will be doomed for battle and only know hunger! One day, you will open your eyes and realize: God isn't there, and never was! (Job 27:12-19) #JobAttack #JobvGod

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

@rkainmdiv Oh, yeah? Gird your loins and listen up: where were YOU when I created the LITERAL Earth?! That's what I thought. Keep walkin', Job! (Job 38:3-4) #GodAttack #JobvGod

Hey @GretaG_ETSit, you know God will openly talk behind your back and bad-mouth you if you, in private, you show partiality to anyone but Him, right? Good luck with His falsehoods, you worthless physician! (Job 13:1-10) #JobAttack #JobvGod

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

@TheQueerPastor, what if I told you that God knew the way to wisdom, but He was disguising it to us humans as fear of the Lord? Thanks a LOT, God! (Job 28:23-28) #JobAttack #JobvGod

I'm in! #JobvGod

...and are therefore available to us as cues by which to interpret ancient, pre-Pentateuchal scripture. They are our ultimate exegetical lamp posts amidst the chaos of prophetic narrative, vision, and rambling lamentation!

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

#NotAllProphets were like that of 1 Samuel 19 - ecstatic, thrashing about as the "spirit of God" overtook his very being. Our modern understanding of the word "prophet" limits who prophets truly were to the ancient Levant... #bibhb500

[KER | TNK @KERreadstheTNK]

The point is, #NotAllProphets operated in the same way, function, or message because #NotAllProphets lived at the same time or reported to the same political power. Their function and message are seeped in their socio-political realities...
