Watchtower Study: Questions and Answers, Weeks 2-8, February 2026, JW Brazil

Welcome. Here are the answers. 1,2. Because it is a simple, attractive book with expressive language. It also addresses the issue of sanctifying Jehovah's name. It shows us his qualities, such as: love, wisdom, justice, and power. And it also answers the question: Why does God allow suffering? 3. We learn how to see life's difficulties from a higher perspective, and how this book can help us when we suffer. Let's see how we can benefit and how to use this book to help others. 4. Job faithfully served Jehovah and did not worship false gods. Although he was rich, he was highly respected. That is why Jehovah saw him as unique. 5. Because the accusations that Satan raised involved important issues. Because Satan said that Job would stop serving God when he went through suffering. That is why Job went through all this suffering. 6. Because the Israelites who lived at that time or after it can be certain that Satan is the cause of all suffering. And they saw that Jehovah allows it, but also shows the way out and rewards those who remain faithful. 7,8. For these people understand that it is not Jehovah who causes hardship. And this is good because it brings peace and true happiness. Hazel says that when her parents separated, she was raised by her stepfather, and when she was older, she was abused, causing her to lose all hope in God. But after she began studying, she understood that it is not God who causes suffering, and she was able to find peace and happiness. 9. I would describe it as something extremely cruel. I imagine we won't go through similar things in life. Job lost everything except his faith, and that was certainly the determining factor. 10. For all his speech, right or wrong, was directed to Jehovah, as if he had a very close friendship with him. And this is visible in the related texts. 11. Jehovah did not judge or condemn him for his fault. Instead, he instructed him as a father does his son. And in this way, Job recognized that he knew nothing of what he had spoken. 12. Moses had to deal with some disappointments, but he always turned to Jehovah for help. And like Job, he also had to persevere when disciplined. All this helped Moses and other Israelites to accept corrections without making excuses. 13. Job's story assures us that we can tell Jehovah everything and he will listen to us. He will never condemn us, but will give us strength and wisdom to continue persevering. And like Job, we can be humble when we are disciplined. 14. We can tell what happened in the Garden of Eden, how Satan led Adam and Eve astray by telling a lie, and because of this Adam and Eve rebelled, were expelled from the garden, and because of this we lost perfection and suffer. 15. We can begin by saying that Job, a faithful servant of God, went through much suffering, and thought that it was God who caused the suffering, but after he prayed to God and poured out his heart, God showed him the real source of suffering. 16. A sister preaching by phone contacted a man who was about to commit suicide, but when the sister read a text that showed that God hears prayers, Mario told her what he was writing. And the second time the sister called, she spoke about Job's suffering, and Mario wanted to read the entire book of Job. Thus showing how the book of Job can help people who are suffering. 17. Because through him we know that Jehovah causes evil, that he helps those who are suffering, and although he permits it, he also gives strength to endure it. And there they also comfort those who are suffering.
