Job 1:1–22: What Happens in the Book of Job
Job 1:1–22 opens the book with a blameless man, a heavenly conversation Job never hears, and a wave of loss that strips him of property and children. His first response is grief joined to worship, and the narrator says he did not sin.
2 Samuel 12:22–23: David's Grief and the Child
David stopped fasting once the child died, saying he would go to the child but the child would not return. The verse gives genuine comfort without promising that every child who dies is in heaven.
