Sympathy - a Christian perspective


Job has just lost everything. He is depleted. It is at this moment that three of his friends agree to go and sympathize with him. Their acts of sympathy are simply to be with him and experience his remorse. They sit with him. They are silent with him. They respect his losses and are there for him.

Job 2:11-13 (KJV)

 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.

 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and…

“[Praise to the God of All Comfort] Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” -2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Listen to chapter
