Iyov | Job ch.14 - The Power of Water
Published 1 year, 7 months ago
Description
Today we tell the story of Rabbi Akiva who found faith in the future from watching water smoothing out a rock. He quoted the verse from our chapter (14:19) 'water wears away stone' . As we will see, Job speaks this verse in a dispirited lament at human fatality and futility.
We might wonder what might have transpired were Iyov to have met Rabbi Akiva!
