Maybe this was already addressed, as I haven't read every page, but, as you keep bringing up Job, I submit the following about Job:
Job was not a Jew, and was not part of the Sinai Covenant given to Israel through Moses. As such, his life was not governed by the Torah as revealed in the Pentateuch.
His ability, therefore, to be righteous, or not, was not determined by the keeping of the ordinances revealed in the Mosaic Law.
His was a law of the conscience, as
Romans 2:14 shows:
Quote:
14. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15. Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another...
