You are confused. Job was living in fear which is sinful behavior so Job was already in satan's hand and the devil was so slow he didn't even know.
All God did was set a limit on the devil forbidding him from killing Job. The devil had every right to attack Job because Job tells us plainly that he was in fear which is sinful and this is the reason God's hedge of protection was no longer available to protect Job.
Well milk boy we'll see who ends up where when it's all over.
Right now the old devil can slap you around at will be he can't do that to me.
That's a BOGUS idea, like you think you have to come up with some excuse for Satan attacking Job, just like Job's 3 friends who tried to get Job to admit guilt when Job WAS NOT GUILTY.
GOD allowed Satan to test Job, and nothing more. Job had the signs of being one of God's CHOSEN ELECT. That's why when the testing was all over, GOD gave Job a double-portion back of what he had lost!
GOD knew... His servant Job would not fall away, no matter what, and Job didn't. And when it was over, GOD also REBUKED Job's three friends who thought Job was guilty of something and was why he was being attacked, JUST AS YOU ALSO HAVE WRONGLY ASSUMED ABOUT JOB.
