Job 1:9-10. Doth Job fear God for nought? Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side?
The black dog of hell had been prowling around to see where he could get in, so he knew that there was a hedge right round Job, and round his house and all that he had. Notice how the devil insinuates that Job feared God for what he could get out of him. "His love is cupboard love," says Satan; "he is well paid by providence for his reverence to God."
