Gregory the Great was pope from 590 to 604, a time of great turmoil
in Italy and in the western Roman Empire generally because of the
barbarian invasions. Gregory's experience as prefect of the city of
Rome and as apocrisarius of Pope Pelagius fitted him admirably for
the new challenges of the papacy. The Moral Reflections on the Book
of Job were first given to the monks who accompanied Gregory to the
embassy in Constantinople. This sixth volume, containing books 28
through 35, provides commentary on five chapters of Job, from 38:1
through 42:17. The present volume contains the Lord's appearing to
Job out of the whirlwind, the Lord's two lengthy speeches to Job
and Job's responses, and, finally, the Lord's rebuke to Job's
friends and restoration of Job's fortunes. Finally, Gregory speaks
of his intention in writing this long work and requests that his
readers grant him their prayers and tears. Includes comprehensive
indexes for volumes 1-6.
