Lessons I've learned from reading Job:
How to be a good friend, especially to someone who is suffering:
Be presentShut your cake holeDon't ever assume the person did something to "earn" the suffering

@rl_dane @joel @theresmiling I would challenge that it's "just" prose. Some of it seems very poetic to me, especially the final chapters which aremy favorite. We actually named our daughter after one of Job's.
