Nothing you posted from Job addressed the fairness of God, the topic of the thread by the way.
Allowing someone to severely fuck over your most faithful do-gooder for the sake of a bet is hardly a measure of fairness, regardless if shit was given back.
Exactly, it is the same as beating the shit out of your spouse then buying them roses after that.
Actually no. We are not God's wife. We are God's slaves. The story of Job would be like Spock being ordered into the Dilithium chamber at the end of "the wrath of Kahn" exposing himself to all sorts of bad things in order to save the rest of the crew. (The needs of the many...)
Job suffered so the rest of us can know hope, when our trails take us into hardship.
