"In my flesh I shall see God"

When did Job expect to see God? Was it the moment he died? Did he expect to go up to Heaven as an ethereal spirit being and see God then? Let us read Job 19:25-27.

"For I know that my Redeemer lives,

And He shall stand at last on the earth;

And after my skin is destroyed, this I know,

That in my flesh I shall see God,

Whom I shall see for myself,

And my eyes shall behold, and not another.

How my heart yearns within me!"

Job expected to see God not at death but "at the end", "at the last", "at the latter day", "at the last day" depending on the Bible version. And not as a spirit but "in my flesh' or "in my body". This is an unmistakable reference to a physical resurrection of the body. Here are a couple texts regarding the resurrection:

"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord."

1 Thess 4:16-17

"We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed -- in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality."

1 Cor 15:50-52
