Sunday School Curriculum <strong>Grade</strong> <strong>10</strong><br />

Talk about his righteousness.<br />

Blame God for <strong>the</strong> suffering <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> righteous.<br />

Ask God to remove him from <strong>the</strong> earth.<br />

Finally <strong>the</strong> conclusion: ―Miserable comforters are you all‖ (Job 16:2).<br />

Their failure to comfort him: ―And when <strong>the</strong>y raised <strong>the</strong>ir eyes from afar, and did not<br />

recognize him, <strong>the</strong>y lifted <strong>the</strong>ir voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and sprinkled<br />

dust on his head toward heaven‖ (Job 2:12).<br />

They had nothing to say, until Job cursed his day: ―So <strong>the</strong>y sat down with him on <strong>the</strong><br />

ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for <strong>the</strong>y saw that<br />

his grief was very great‖ (Job 2:13).<br />

Their judgment to him: (1) They were righteous people, but <strong>the</strong>y condemned Job <strong>of</strong><br />

unrighteousness, and judged him falsely. (2) They came up with many correct<br />

conclusions about God‘s judgment in general, but none <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m were applicable to Job.<br />

Conclusion:<br />

God cares for our salvation. He may allow some tribulations to edify us and purify us but He never<br />

forsakes us.<br />

Applications:<br />

Ask <strong>the</strong> students to read as much as <strong>the</strong>y can from <strong>the</strong> book <strong>of</strong> Job during this week<br />

and prepare questions <strong>the</strong>y have for next week.<br />

Ask one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> students to prepare to summarize today‘s lesson for <strong>the</strong> rest <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

class as a revision before next week‘s continuation.<br />
