A Challenge of Integrity
Job issues a bold legal challenge, daring anyone to prove him guilty. Commentator John Gill sees this as a powerful parallel to the believer's confidence in Christ. Just as Job was sure of his integrity, Christians can be confident in their justification, able to ask, "Who shall bring any charge against God's elect?" (Romans 8:33). Job's stance is rooted in his personal righteousness, a foreshadowing of the believer's standing in Christ's righteousness.
