Though He Slay Me: Reflections on the Book of Job

Why would a good God allow a genuinely good man to lose everything? Though He Slay Me: Reflections on the Book of Job is the tenth volume in The Daily Quiet Time Reflections Series, drawn from more than a decade of daily Quiet Time writing and Sunday School classes at First Baptist Church in Dallas. Across thirteen chapters, Eugene Han and Eunmi Kim walk through Job 1-42 one reading at a time, sitting honestly inside the book's hardest questions rather than rushing past them: Why does God allow Satan to test a man He Himself calls blameless? Why do Job's friends, who say true things about God's holiness, still end up rebuked for what they said? What does it mean that God never actually answers Job's question of "why" - and why is that somehow enough? This is not a technical commentary written for seminarians. It is a layman's companion for ordinary believers who want to read Job slowly, carefully, and honestly - sitting with its unresolved tensions rather than resolving them too quickly. Eunmi's voice is woven throughout, often quieter and more personal, giving the book a second perspective alongside Eugene's. Each chapter includes: - A close, readable walk through that section's text, grounded in careful study but written for everyday readers- Cross-references that trace how Job's questions echo through the rest of Scripture, from the Psalms to Paul's letters to the words of Christ- Honest engagement with Job's rawest complaints and his friends' most confident answers, without flattening either into an easy lesson- Reflection and discussion questions, ideal for personal devotion or small-group Bible study Whether you are walking through your own season of unexplained suffering, leading a Bible study, or simply continuing the journey through Scripture this series has traced from Genesis onward, this book offers thirteen chapters of careful, faithful reflection on one of the oldest and most searching books in the Bible - a book that trades easy answers for something better: an encounter with God Himself.
