Job 1:21

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Job 1:21. And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither:

That is, to the womb of Mother Earth.

Job 1:21. The LORD gave and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

I think these are the grandest words in the whole record of human speech. Considering the circumstances of the man at the time, that he should thus speak was, I think, a miracle of grace.
