Mark in Job 7
MARK
This person shows up in Job 7:20: “If I have sinned, what do I do to you, you watcher of men? Why have you set me as a mark for you, so that I am a burden to myself?” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
Job 7:20
“If I have sinned, what do I do to you, you watcher of men? Why have you set me as a mark for you, so that I am a burden to myself?”
What kids can learn
When you hear mark in Job, remember the sentence around it. God put this person in the story on purpose.
Read Job 7:20 again tomorrow and ask what the person is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
