The whole book of Job might be seen as a preparation for the final encounter with God in which Job finds that he is, after all, not prepared. In today's reading Fr Euan shows that Job is not sure if he wants to see God, after having said that he does want to see him before.

AS I WAS SAYING airs live on Radio Maria on Thursdays at 11:15am and is rebroadcast at 11:15pm. Each week Fr Euan Marley OP makes his way, chapter by chapter, through a book of Holy Scripture providing in-depth commentary.
