Job 10:1-2 - A Plea to God

Job 10:1-2 1 “I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. 2 I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why you contend against me.
The great danger of trial is discontent and it's resultant anger.it is what occurs when we dwell on the circumstances of life, the particulars to the exclusion of all else. This is what has happened to Job. The result is that perspective gets skewed, and the further along it proceeds, the further the skew slews...to one side or the other. That skewed perspective drives one to think and say things that, in anchor, more objective context, one would not say or even think. This is surely the case with Job.

Under other circumstances, Job would be able to reason his way through the situation his is in and come to the proper conclusion. But because Job allowed himself to be overcome (and it was a matter of him allowing himself to be overcome - it was a choice he made to yield to his flesh) by the variety things that have intruded themselves into his thus far, his normal perspective has become impossible at this point, and another, ungodly perspective, has thrust itself into the fore, as expressed in verse 2.

Rather than being held accountable by God and answering to Him as His servant; he calls God to account and makes the critical mistake of charging Him with evil and insisting that God had mistreated him and dealt with him unjustly.

3 Does it seem good to you to oppress, to despise the work of your hands and favor the designs of the wicked?
Again, we note the charging of God with evil. Job he calls God to account for the evil that is present in his life, not just implying that God is responsible, but that He is the direct agent of the calamity that has occurred. This is the argument, no, the accusation and expression of temper he makes for the rest of this chapter as well as for a considerable part of the rest of the his own part of the book, at least until God Himself speaks up at the end of the book.
