Show Summary
In Job 24, Job wrestles with the apparent delay of divine justice. He looks around and sees the wicked prospering, the poor suffering, and the righteous waiting. This chapter reminds us that while God’s justice may seem delayed, it is never denied. God sees every wrong, knows every heart, and will set all things right in His perfect timing—ultimately pointing us to Jesus Christ, the righteous Judge and Redeemer.
