Which Old Testament figure declared, “The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord”?

Correct Answer

A) Job

In Job 1:21, after losing nearly everything, Job responds not with despair—but with worship. His words echo the heart of Psalm 42:11: praise that rises not from perfect circumstances, but from unshaken trust. Job’s “yet” praise is a model of faith in the midst of deep sorrow.
