Jób 2, 1-13

1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. 2 And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence come you? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. 3 And the LORD said unto Satan, Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that fears God, and turns away from evil? and still he holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause. 4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man has will he give for his life. 5 But put forth your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face. 6 "And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in your hand; but save his life. " 7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and stroke Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. 8 "And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself likewise; and he sat down among the ashes. " 9 Then said his wife unto him, Do you still retain your integrity? curse God, and die. 10 But he said unto her, You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. 11 "Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him. " 12 "And when they lifted up their eyes far off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven. " 13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spoke a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.

Jób 2, 1-13





Job 2,4 - "Kožu za kožu!" je najskôr príslovie, ktorým sa vyjadruje istá skúsenosť zo života pastierov a roľníkov. Jeho význam je asi takýto: Každý zamieňa nejakú vec len za vec rovnakej hodnoty. Najväčšou hodnotou na svete je pre človeka zdravie a život. Aby si teda človek udržal zdravie a uchránil život, hotový je všetko obetovať. Jób by sa uspokojil už aj s tým, že stratil majetok a deti, len keď mu ešte zostáva zdravie a život.

Job 2,7 - Jóbova choroba je malomocenstvo, tzv. elephantiasis, pri ktorej chorobe koža na tele spuchla, hnisala a postupne odumierali od hniloby aj údy.

Job 2,8 - Pri vchode do osady býval kopec nahromadený z rozličných smetí a odpadkov. Jób pre svoje malomocenstvo nemal bývať v blízkosti svojej rodiny. Preto sa utiahol na "smetisko". To bolo miesto určené pre chudobných (Ž 113,7) a z ľudskej spoločnosti vylúčených osôb (Iz 47,1; Jon 3,6).

Job 2,11 - Teman hľadajú niektorí v dnešnom meste Tejma. Iní zasa s istou pravdepodobnosťou myslia na dnešné miesto Tavane v Edomsku (Gn 36,15; Jer 49,7.20 a i.). Mudrci z Temanu vynikali slávou (Jer 49,7; Bar 3,22). Šuach hľadajú v severozápadnej Arábii (Gn 25,1 n.). Aj miesto Naama ležalo v blízkosti uvedených dvoch osád (Temanu a Šuachu). Sotva je to dnešné mesto Maon. Možné je aj to, že mená Šuach a Naama neznačia miesta, ale skôr niektoré arabské čeľade.

Job 2,12 - Ako natrhnutie odevu (porov. 1,20), tak aj posypanie hlavy prachom alebo popolom bolo znakom veľkého zármutku a žiaľu (porov. 1 Sam 4,12; Ez 27,30 a i.).

Job 2,13 - Smútok nad odumretím človeka trval pravidelne sedem dní (Gn 50,10; 1 Sam 31,13). Bez slova sedieť pri smútiacom a nešťastím postihnutom priateľovi bolo prejavom sústrasti a žiaľu nad ním (2 Sam 13,31; Ez 26,16).
