Job 1:6-7
6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
KJV
Job 2:1
2:1 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.
KJV
The "sons of God" title refers to the heavenly image state like the angels. It points to our glorious body of the future when Jesus appears and gathers His Church to Himself.
are you so sure? the term sons of God refere to men, and metaphorically to his creation as it was in Job 38. but here it is speaking of human men. supportive scripture, Job 1:1 "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil."Job 1:2 "And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters."Job 1:3 "His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the
men of the east."
do you know what the term "men here means? lets have a look see, it is the hebrew word,
H1121 בֵּן ben (bane) n-m.
בָּנִים baniym (ba-neem') [plural]
בְּנִי bniy (ben-ee') [possessive singular]
בָּנַי banay (baw-nah'ee) [possessive plural]
(used widely) a son (as a builder of the family name).
{in the widest sense of literal and figurative relationship, including grandson, subject, nation, quality or condition, etc., (like H1 H251, etc.).}
now where have seen this word at before? try Genesis 6:4,
now as for the suppose angels in Job chapter 38, it's a metaphor for
the actual stars, in the heaven and the sun and the moon. lets understand, Follow and understand. James 1:17 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from
the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning”. The almighty is called the “Father” of lights, and lights here lights is plural, and is the Greek word, G5457 φῶς phos (fōs') n. which means luminousness. Now hold that thought and go to Thayer's Greek Definitions and or the blue letter bible, look up G3962 πατήρ pater, (Father)
- Transliteration: Pater
- Phonetic: pat-ayr'
- Definition:
1. generator or male ancestor
a. either the nearest ancestor: father of the corporeal nature, natural fathers, both parents.
THIS IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK WHEN THEY HEAR THE WORD “FATHER”.
but we are interested in the 3rd definition, and here it is, listen.
3.
God is called the Father
a.
of the stars, the heavenly luminaries, because he is their creator, upholder, ruler
God is the Father of the “STARS”, and the heavenly luminaries. Yes, the literal stars in the sky. for Job said, morning “stars” not morning “star”. A star is a luminous sphere of plasma held together by its own gravity. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun. Many other stars are visible to the naked eye from Earth during the night, appearing as a multitude of fixed luminous points in the sky due to their immense distance from Earth. Again, the stars are the actual stars in the heavens. Now, go to dictionary.com, or the free dictionary, or any dictionary and look up luminaries in the plural a celestial body,
as the sun or moon. (BINGO).
Now let’s see this sun and moon and the actual stars and what they did in Job 38:7. Remember the Almighty said that
they sang and shouted for joy. Let’s see this metaphor clearly. Psalms 148:1 "Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. Verse 2
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him,
all his hosts. 3
Praise ye him, sun and moon:
praise him, all ye stars of light. 4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. 5 Let them praise the name of the LORD:
for he commanded, and they were created”. Now what do the word praise mean here? It is the Hebrew word, H1984 הָלַל halal (haw-lal') v. which can be translated as “sing”, or “shine”. See the stars, the sun and the moon sang or praised God by shining their lights at the creation. One more, Psalms 65:13 "The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn;
they shout for joy, they also sing”. BINGO, The pastures, and valleys also praising God? Yes, how?
by shouting for joy and singing. It’s all a metaphor. Do we now understand.
Remember, Don't argue with 101G, argue with the scriptures, God Holy Word.
