Job, Satan and the Sons of God

Last week, we saw that many of the passages that use the word “satan” refer to human beings as adversaries. Is Satan in the book of Job another instance of this? Many people conclude that Satan is an angel? We are very pleased to have Dev Ramcharan with us to help identify the adversary of Job. Listen in and weigh the evidence for yourself.

Key Verse:

“Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.” (Job 1:6)
