Job 31-33

It took me about 15 minutes to read this passage. The last words that Job speak points to his understanding of righteousness. All of chapter 31 focuses on the sin in which Job could have immersed himself; and he is very specific. But he brings to God the facts that in no way has he been guilty of sinning. If he were guilty, Job argues, let the punishment fall upon him. I know that I need to beware and fall to the temptation in which Elihu and his companions fell; to assume the worse in Job's charactor based up their perspective of Job's outward appeaeance.
