But in the story, God does explicitly give the Devil free reign to do evil, with only one restriction. God was previously protecting Job and his family, and deliberately stopped protecting him in order to allow the Devil to perpetrate evil on these people.I think 1 and 2 would describe my belief except for the concept of God tormenting people. The torment in this account came from the devil. And before you can say it, no, God did not create the devil to be evil, the devil did that on his own.
You can't say that God didn't know that this was going to happen - the story describes God and the Devil discussing what the Devil wants to do.
You can't say that it's a matter of the requirements of "free will", because God was apparently content to protect Job at the beginning of the story.
How do you reconcile this with the system that you've laid out?
