“And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.”
The narrative continues: 'After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.' Job lives a long life after his affliction. He witnesses his descendants through four generations. The extended life allows Job to see the continuation and flourishing of his family. The reference to seeing sons' sons and their sons suggests deep satisfaction and fullness of life. The verse establishes that restoration includes not merely material wealth and family but extended life to enjoy those blessings.
