Yes, God made Job whole again. If you read the last chapter of Job you will see that the Lord restored him in everyway. So I believe he was made whole again.

God bless you

Didn't realize He was 'broken'. He had many desrtuctive things happen to his family and suffered greatly, from mental, emotional, and physical stress himself. Even though lucifer wanted to be a god, and was responsible for Job's 'test', he did not have anything to do with Job's 'restoration'. That was All GOD'S doing. It was God Who put Job's life back together.

Yes he does.

Job 42:10-17

10And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

11Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.

12So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

13He had also seven sons and three daughters.

14And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.

15And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

16After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.

17So Job died, being old and full of days.


Hope I helped. God bless you.

If you are talking about the situation of Job of the Bible , it seems that yes he was blessed in a special way since he with stood Satan's especially direct attacks & the challenge that Job could not stay faithful to God, IF God allowed Satan to test him:

(Job 1:9-11) “. . .At that Satan answered Jehovah and said: “Is it for nothing that Job has feared God? 10 Have not you yourself put up a hedge about him and about his house and about everything that he has all around? The work of his hands you have blessed, and his livestock itself has spread abroad in the earth. 11 But, for a change, thrust out your hand,(meaning to allow Satan to severly test Job--my comment) please, and touch everything he has [and see] whether he will not curse you to your very face.””

Thus the blessing of God , could indeed be described as making him whole again in that everything seems to have been restored to him ,(his dignity,his health, riches, place in society etc) except the lives of his original children:

(Job 42:10-17) “. . .And Jehovah himself turned back the captive condition of Job when he prayed in behalf of his companions, and Jehovah began to give in addition all that had been Job’s, in double amount.
--11 And there kept coming to him all his brothers and all his sisters and all those formerly knowing him, and they began to eat bread with him in his house and to sympathize with him and to comfort him over all the calamity that Jehovah had let come upon him; and they proceeded each one to give him a piece of money and each one a gold ring. 12 As for Jehovah, he blessed the end of Job afterward more than his beginning, so that he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and six thousand camels and a thousand spans of cattle and a thousand she-asses. 13 He also came to have seven sons and three daughters. 14 And he went calling the name of the first Je·mi′mah and the name of the second Ke·zi′ah and the name of the third Ker′en-hap′puch. 15 And no women were found as pretty as Job’s daughters in all the land, and their father proceeded to give them an inheritance in among their brothers. 16 And Job continued living after this a hundred and forty years and came to see his sons and his grandsons—four generations. 17 And gradually Job died, old and satisfied with days.”

To a Religious Fundy what God and Satan did to job was perfectly alright. To me his life was permanently destroyed. substituting a new family for one which has been taken away does not make you whole.

Hell no! It was his relatives who did... God's compensation is rabish!

Job 42:11 (KJV) Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over ALL THE EVIL that the LORD had brought upon him:

edit: God made Job TWICE as rich as he was before! not 10 times!!!! Shameful Christian liars (Darbygirl)!
Job 42:10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord made him prosperous again and gave him twice as much as he had before.

NOTHING CAN COMPENSATE FOR ALL OF JOB's CHILDREN THAT GOD HAD KILLED IN HIS BET WITH SATAN!

He blessed Job for being faithful and doubled the blessings he had before.

Yes, at the end of the book of Job, his life is rebuilt and he is very content and prosperous.

If you are a believer, God should not be spelled with a lower-case g. Unless of course you aren't writing about The Creator. "Thor is allegedly a god but Yaweh is the one true God."
