Commentary on Job 1:5
Job's intercessory role prefigures Christ's priestly work. The Hebrew 'qadash' (sanctified) indicates covenant purification through sacrifice. Job's concern that his children might have 'cursed God in their hearts' reveals profound spiritual insight—sin begins in the heart (Matthew 15:19), and only substitutionary atonement can cleanse it. This foreshadows the perfect High Priest who continually intercedes for His people (Hebrews 7:25).
