Description

The Book of Job addresses the most disturbing themes in the Western tradition: what is our place in God's creation? are the good rewarded? the evil punished? can we grasp the ways of creation or are they beyond our ken? Job the patient sufferer, the afflicted man whose faith in God is finally rewarded, is a standard figure in our cultural heritage. But in this new translation by Raymond Scheindlin, a different Job emerges.
