Day 276..."Job is determined...the reason we have laws"

We today read of Job's determination to keep his integrity...no matter what..."Far be it from me to say that you are right;till I die I will not put away my integrity from me." Beautiful words are written about God in chapter 28..."“God understands the way to it, and he knows its place. For he looks to the ends of the earthand sees everything under the heavens. When he gave to the wind its weight and apportioned the waters by measure, when he made a decree for the rain and a way for the lightning of the thunder, then he saw it and declared it;he established it, and searched it out. And he said to man,‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,and to turn away from evil is understanding.’” I heard one person comment recently about how articulate the Bible is written(considering the limited forms of communication) ...these words of Job are both precise and poetic. Jeremiah's words still sound like a lament in chapter 14. Romans 13 has themes of "owing no one anything but love" and "paying taxes." I had not noticed this chapter before. Notice how goverment leaders are considered ministers of God..."For because of this you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God." We also have another teaching of the "loving your neighbor as yourself." Love is fulfillment of the law writes Paul. Have we ever considered the reason we have laws is so we can love more?
