Some things in life are confusing, including the Word of God. There are passages and episodes in God's Word that, rightly, are head scratchers to us. Sometimes we simply need more study to find the author's intent and the original audience's understanding, sometimes we need to conform our hearts and minds to Christ-likeness, and sometimes we won't find the answers we're looking for (like Job). As long as it spurs us on toward wisdom, confusion is not our enemy, but a reminder of the humility God requires of us. So, why did Jesus do that?
