faith

from this conversation we learn a great deal about saten he is accountable to God... all angelic beings good and evil are compelled to present themselves before God. God knew that saten was intent on attacking Job. saten can be at only one place at a time his demons aid him at his work but as a created being he is limited. saten can not see into our minds or fortell the future if he could he would of know that Job would not break under pressure. saten can do nothing without Gods permission.
