How does Job's suffering point to Christ?

Job's experiences resonate deeply with the sufferings of Christ, both showcasing the innocence of the sufferer and the redemptive purpose of their trials. Throughout Job's ordeal, we see his lament and cries for understanding, representing a profound struggle that is mirrored in Christ's passion. Just as Job was accursed and falsely judged by his friends for his suffering, so too was Christ judged and condemned despite His innocence. Job ultimately points us to the message of the Gospel; that through suffering, both he and Christ would reveal the depth of God’s grace and the necessity of faith. Job's trials were not punitive but served to illustrate the suffering Savior who would come to redeem His people from their sins.
