Job continues to suffer as God permits Satan to go one step further. Three of his friends sit with him in silence, for seven days and seven nights, sharing in his grief and offering their silent support. Finally, they speak. As they begin to speak, their' compassion turns into accusations and assumptions about the reasons for Job's misfortune. Job responds to each friend, defending his integrity and righteousness.
