Job 1:5 meaning and explanation
And when the days of feasting were over, Job would send for his children to purify them, rising early in the morning to offer burnt offerings for all of them. For Job thought, “Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular practice.
Job 1:5, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Job has just been described as blameless and upright, yet he does not assume his children are safe before God. After their rounds of feasting, he sends for them, consecrates them, and rises early to offer a burnt offering for each one, since he cannot see their hearts and fears they may have cursed God inwardly.
