How do we know Job was a righteous man?

Answered in 3 sources

Job is identified as a righteous man by God Himself, affirming his integrity and faithfulness amid suffering.

In the scriptures, Job is explicitly called 'a righteous man' by God. Despite all the calamities that befall him, Job's integrity remains intact as he does not sin or charge God with wrongdoing. His declaration, 'Though he slay me, yet will I trust in Him,' reinforces his deep faith and righteousness. This divine affirmation of Job's character is vital, as it affirms that righteousness is not dependent upon external circumstances but is rooted in one's relationship with God. God's acknowledgment of Job as 'my servant' serves as the ultimate validation of Job's faith and righteousness in the face of immense trial.
