Today’s verse is also well-known in the world of music:

For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: (Job 19:25)

There is a hymn that pretty much starts with this verse: “I know that my Redeemer liveth, and on the earth again shall stand…”

But this verse is also famous in Handel’s Messiah, which quotes it exactly: “I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth”

This isn’t some 20th century theologian – Job lived thousands of years ago, and yet says of God that He is a personal Redeemer (“my Redeemer”), and that He is going to come to earth in the last day.
