Job 1 places us once again in the presence of God. This time we get a different picture of what goes on in that Presence. The angels (literally ‘the sons of God’) have presented themselves before God and Satan is among them. God singles out Satan and engages him in a dialogue concerning Job, whom is ‘blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil’ (1:1,8). The upshot of this discussion is that God gives Satan permission to do with as he will with all that Job has, but not with Job himself.
