“Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head, and he fell to the ground and worshiped.” Job 1:20
After taking wealth, servants, sons & daughters from Job, Satan was delighted to see Job mourn in the first half of this verse. When Job fell to the ground, Satan must have thought he finally brought down righteous Job…until Job worshiped & blessed the Lord’s name (1:21). Pretty high kudos for Job by God in 2:3.
He said, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I shall return there. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD.” Job 1:21
The LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still holds fast his integrity, although you incited Me against him to ruin him without cause.” Job 2:3
