Bible Question (short): Can a fallen angel be in God's presence? |
Question (full): I've searched this forum and other web sites but am still looking for a good commentary/explanation on the meaning of Job 1:6-8. Based on the assumption that verses 7 and 8 represent a literal conversation between God and Satan, which seems plausable no matter which translation one references, I continue to wonder why God would allow or tolerate or summon Satan into His presence? This, based on an additional assumption that Satan was fallen and cast out of heaven prior to the time of Job. Any thoughts? |
