Job 20: When Truth Lacks Compassion
Reading the Bible Daily with Dave • Dave Jenkins • Thursday, January 22, 2026
Show Summary
In Job 20, Zophar responds to Job’s declaration of hope not with humility or comfort, but with anger, presumption, and harsh judgment. He assumes Job’s suffering proves guilt and paints a vivid picture of the wicked’s downfall—truth spoken without compassion. This episode reminds us that God’s justice is never ours to wield in pride, and that the justice and mercy of God are perfectly revealed in Jesus Christ.
