Job 1-16 - How does this keep happening?

The readings - days 152-156 - Job 1-16

I'm not at all sure how this keeps happening, but here we are with another whopping 'catch-up' post.

I'm actually very surprised by Job. I really thought it was just a tiny little book, and now that I actually look at it, it's immense. I'm pretty excited to work my way through it, since it's obviously a much more in-depth piece of work than popular summaries would lead/have led me to believe.

It's still a very weird book, though. Satan showing up at God's angelic council meeting, God bragging about one of his best buds and then granting Satan permission to destroy his life (without actually destroying his life, mind you)... It's a bit of a trip, to say the least.

1 Chronicles 18-29 - I really can't believe how boring Chronicles is...

The readings - Days 127-130 - 1 Chronicles 18-29

This is unbelievable. I was really within a day of actually getting caught up, but Chronicles is (so far, anyway) so abjectly uninspiring that it's very, very difficult to muster the motivation to post something, since I'm essentially (as I said before) trying to find something interesting to write about a boring recap of stuff that's already happened.

*sigh*

HOWEVER, there is something that shows up in the latter half of 1 Chronicles that hinges on the fact that this is a re-run.
