Satan is saying Not without reason. You have given him this and You have given him that but You put his skin to the test and he will literally sell his soul to maintain, rescue, protect his flesh. In essence, Satan is belligerent. He is talking to God flippantly from going up and down in the world. He is so sure of himself because of a previous incident he orchestrated, Gen 3 17 also ended in skin for skin. Actually he is arrogant enough to believe this. So now he is convinced that he can work Job like he did Adam and Eve and bring about a down fall. But Job showed him a thing or two. Briefly, it 's just a test. God test hearts and weighs spirits. Also Satan said, from going up and down. God knows that ain 't nothing new under the sun. He already knows the answer. He already worked it. It 's why Job was chosen. He was born for that very event. As pharaoh was for his. Nebuchadnezzar for his. Moses for his. In the end God will be glorified. Elihu said it best. Job it ain 't about you, it 's about God. Glory, honor, praise, fame is for God. The devil is mighty, but my God is Almighty! Amen
