Throughout Scripture, questioning is depicted in various scenarios, involving both divine and human interactions. Questioning God One of the most notable instances of questioning in the Bible is found in the Book of Job. Job, a righteous man who suffers immense loss and affliction, questions God about the reasons for his suffering. In <a href="/job/3-11.htm">Job 3:11</a>, he laments, "Why did I not perish at birth; why did I not die as I came from the womb?" Job's questioning reflects a deep struggle with understanding God's justice and the purpose of his trials. God's response to Job, beginning in <a href="/bsb/job/38.htm">Job 38</a>, emphasizes His sovereignty and the limitations of human understanding: "Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding" (<a href="/job/38-4.htm">Job 38:4</a>). Questioning Jesus The New Testament records several instances where Jesus is questioned by various groups, including the Pharisees, Sadducees, and His own disciples. These questions often serve to test Jesus' authority and teachings. In <a href="/matthew/22-35.htm">Matthew 22:35-36</a>, a lawyer questions Jesus, "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus responds by summarizing the Law with the commandments to love God and love one's neighbor (<a href="/matthew/22-37.htm">Matthew 22:37-40</a>). Jesus Himself also uses questions as a teaching tool. In <a href="/matthew/16-13.htm">Matthew 16:13</a>, He asks His disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?" This question leads to Peter's confession of Jesus as the Messiah, highlighting the importance of recognizing Jesus' true identity. Questioning by the Disciples The disciples frequently question Jesus, seeking clarity and understanding of His teachings and parables. In <a href="/mark/4-10.htm">Mark 4:10</a>, after Jesus shares the Parable of the Sower, the disciples ask Him about its meaning. Jesus explains the parable, revealing the mysteries of the Kingdom of God to them (<a href="/mark/4-11.htm">Mark 4:11-20</a>). Questioning in Faith The act of questioning is not portrayed negatively in Scripture when it stems from a genuine desire to understand and grow in faith. In <a href="/james/1-5.htm">James 1:5</a>, believers are encouraged to seek wisdom from God: "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him" . This verse underscores the importance of approaching God with questions, trusting in His willingness to provide guidance. Questioning Authority Throughout the Bible, questioning authority is depicted in various lights. In <a href="/bsb/numbers/16.htm">Numbers 16</a>, Korah and his followers question Moses' leadership, leading to their downfall as God affirms Moses' appointed role. Conversely, in <a href="/acts/17-11.htm">Acts 17:11</a>, the Bereans are commended for examining the Scriptures daily to verify Paul's teachings: "Now the Berean Jews were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true" . Conclusion The theme of questioning in the Bible encompasses a range of motives and outcomes. Whether questioning God, Jesus, or human authority, the Scriptures illustrate that questioning can lead to deeper understanding and faith when approached with humility and a sincere heart.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Question.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/1905.htm">1905. eperotao -- to inquire of</a> ... 5), ask...question (1), ask...questions (1), asked (14), asked...a question (1), asking (2), asking...questions (1), question (3), questioned (18), questioning ... //strongsnumbers.com/greek2/1905.htm - 8k<a href="/greek/2065.htm">2065. erotao -- to ask, question</a> ... 1), asked (14), asking (11), asks (3), beg (1), begging (1), implored (1), imploring (1), make request (1), please (2), question (5), questioned (2), request (4 ... //strongsnumbers.com/greek2/2065.htm - 9k<a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/7592.htm">7592. shaal -- to ask, inquire</a> ... earnestly asked leave (1), greet* (5), greeted* (1), inquire (6), inquired (18), inquires (1), making (2), medium* (1), pray (1), questioned (2), questioned ... /hebrew/7592.htm - 6k <a href="/hebrew/1875.htm">1875. darash -- to resort to, seek</a> ... at all (1), demand (1), inquire (33), inquired (5), inquirer (1), investigate (3), investigated (1), looks (2), making inquiry (1), questioned (1), require (7 ... /hebrew/1875.htm - 6k<a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><a href="/library/maclaren/expositions_of_holy_scripture_b/the_tables_turned_the_questioners.htm">The Tables Turned: the Questioners Questioned</a> ...
