In the context of Job, it contrasts with Job's current state of suffering and turmoil. The idea of lying down without fear is reminiscent of <a href="/psalms/4-8.htm">Psalm 4:8</a>, where the psalmist expresses trust in God for safety. In ancient Near Eastern culture, the ability to lie down without fear was a sign of divine blessing and protection, often associated with a righteous life. This peace is also a foreshadowing of the ultimate rest and security found in Christ, who offers peace beyond understanding (<a href="/philippians/4-7.htm">Philippians 4:7</a>).<p><b>and many will court your favor</b><br>This phrase indicates a restoration of social standing and influence. In the ancient world, having others seek your favor was a sign of respect and honor. Job, once a man of great wealth and influence, is being promised a return to his former status. This reflects the biblical principle that God exalts the humble and restores the fortunes of the faithful, as seen in the lives of Joseph (<a href="/genesis/41-41.htm">Genesis 41:41-43</a>) and Daniel (<a href="/daniel/6-3.htm">Daniel 6:3</a>). Theologically, it points to the ultimate favor found in Christ, who grants believers a place of honor in God's kingdom (<a href="/ephesians/2-6.htm">Ephesians 2:6</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/job.htm">Job</a></b><br>A man of great faith and patience, Job is the central figure in the Book of Job.
