Job’s First Test
6 There came a day when the sons of God[a] came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan[b] also came into their midst. 7 The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?”
Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming the earth and walking around on it.”

- Job 1:6 The term sons of God often refers to believers. Here it refers to angels.
- Job 1:6 The Hebrew word satan is a common noun that means adversary or accuser. In the book of Job this title still is written as a common noun with the article, the satan, that is, the Accuser. In later books, as it becomes established as a proper name for the leader of the evil angels, the article is dropped and it is simply Satan.
