I search for the word sovereign in the Bible. It doesn't appear in the KJV, but does in the ESV.

Looking into the verses where sovereign appears I found the Koine Greek was despotace.

Which makes sense if God is sovereign.

And Job? Well it was a contest ; a contest between the omnipresent and omniscient, and the omnipotent, omnipresent, the omniscient. I call it, God's night out with the boys. Job didn't get invited. He was the center of the action ; the entertainment ; the victorious superman of God ; God's validation. The sons of God surely had skin in the game.
