Job 13:9
King James Version
12 Jun 2026
“Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?”
חָקַר
To be fully known and not rejected — that is the miracle of Psalm 139. Chaqar is the searching of a jeweller examining a stone, a judge examining evidence. God has searched you completely. He knows the parts you hide from everyone else. And He has not turned away. That is the foundation of all confidence.
