In this volume, J. Gerald Janzen examines the text of the book
of Job as a literary text within the context of the history of the
religion of Israel and within the broader context of the universal
human condition. He approaches the basic character of the book from
a literary perspective which enables him to identify human
existence as exemplified in Job and to expound on the mystery of
good and evil, which gives human existence its experiential texture
and which together drive humans to ask the same kind of questions
asked by Job. This is the first full-length commentary to present
Job systematically and literarily.
