A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 9 is found in chapter 14 of Job. Job compares human beings to a tree that can have hope of sprouting again, while a person seems to disappear without returning. He asks whether there is hope beyond death and imagines waiting until divine anger has passed. The language does not yet constitute a systematic doctrine of resurrection, but it opens one of the book’s great theological questions.
