I know that you can see references to Jesus in every book of the old testament. I was reading Job today and found this
Job 9:32-35 New Living Translation (NLT)
32 “God is not a mortal like me,
so I cannot argue with him or take him to trial.
33 If only there were a mediator between us,
someone who could bring us together.
34 The mediator could make God stop beating me,
and I would no longer live in terror of his punishment.
35 Then I could speak to him without fear,
but I cannot do that in my own strength.
Jesus is called the mediator in 1 Timothy 2:5. I'm sure this is referring to Jesus but I'm also not so sure. I would also like to know if there any other references to Jesus in Job if you know of any. I love the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) references to our Lord in the Old Testament.
