DESCRIPTION

Written by a master of Old Testament interpretation with a pastor’s heart, this work sheds a great deal of light on the meaning of the Book of Job. The author explains the structure of the book, the role played by each of the participants, the significance of their speeches and the bearing of each part on the overall theme. But his deeper pastoral concern is to help the ‘afflicted child of God’ to draw ‘the waters of consolation from this inspired and copious source’.
