Job 36
1.Elihu shows how God is just in his ways
16.How Job's sins hinder God's blessings
24.God's works are to be magnified














If they obey and serve Him
This phrase emphasizes the importance of obedience and service to God, a recurring theme throughout the Bible. In the context of Job, Elihu is speaking about the consequences of human actions in relation to divine justice. Obedience to God is a central tenet in the Old Testament, seen in the covenant relationship between God and Israel (Deuteronomy 11:13-15). Serving God is also highlighted in the New Testament, where Jesus speaks of serving God rather than wealth (Matthew 6:24). The call to obedience and service is a call to align one's life with God's will, reflecting a heart transformed by faith.

then they end their days in prosperity
Prosperity in the biblical sense often refers to more than just material wealth; it includes spiritual well-being and peace. In the historical context of Job, prosperity was seen as a sign of God's favor. This aligns with the wisdom literature's general principle that righteousness leads to blessing (Proverbs 3:1-2). However, the book of Job challenges the simplistic equation of righteousness with prosperity, as Job's suffering occurs despite his righteousness. This phrase can also be seen as a foreshadowing of the ultimate prosperity found in eternal life through Christ, who offers spiritual riches beyond earthly wealth (Ephesians 1:3).

and their years in happiness
Happiness, or joy, in the biblical context is often linked to a right relationship with God. The Hebrew concept of "shalom" encompasses peace, completeness, and contentment, which are aspects of true happiness. In the cultural context of the Ancient Near East, long life and happiness were seen as blessings from God (Psalm 128:1-2). The New Testament expands on this by teaching that true joy is found in Christ, regardless of circumstances (Philippians 4:4). This phrase points to the ultimate fulfillment of joy in the presence of God, as seen in the promise of eternal life with Him (Revelation 21:4).

Teaching Points
Obedience Leads to Blessing
The verse emphasizes the principle that obedience to God results in prosperity and happiness. This is a recurring theme throughout Scripture, encouraging believers to live in accordance with God's will.

Service to God
Serving God is not just about following rules but involves a heart posture of worship and dedication. True service is an expression of love and reverence for God.

Understanding Prosperity
Biblical prosperity is not solely material wealth but includes spiritual well-being and fulfillment. It is important to align our understanding of prosperity with God's perspective.

Endurance Through Trials
Like Job, believers may face trials, but enduring with faith and obedience can lead to eventual restoration and blessing.

God's Sovereignty and Justice
Elihu's speech reminds us of God's ultimate control and fairness. Trusting in His justice can provide comfort during difficult times.
Lists and Questions
Top 10 Lessons from Job 36

What does it profit to gain the world?

Job 11:20 asserts the wicked lose hope, yet history and modern times show many unethical people prosper. How is this reconciled?

In Job 36:11-12, obedience supposedly leads to prosperity while disobedience brings destruction; how does this align with the real-world experiences of faithful people in hardship?

What defines being blessed?(11)They shall spend their days in prosperity.--It is, perhaps, not more easy to reconcile this teaching of Elihu's with the realities of actual fact than it is the notions of Job's friends as to direct retribution in life.

Verse 11. -If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures (comp.Job 12:13-19;Jeremiah 7:23;Jeremiah 26:13). Under the old covenant, prosperity was promised to the righteous, and even to the repentant, frequently, and in the most definite terms. Under the new, when any such promise is made, it is carefully guarded (Mark 10:30); while in many passages the promise is of an opposite character - the righteous are told to expect tribulations and persecutions (John 16:33;Acts 14:22;2 Timothy 3:12:Hebrews 12:1-11;1 Peter 4:12, 13, etc.).
