Preaching's Survey of Bibles and Bible Reference We often turn to
the book of Job when we encounter suffering. We look for an
explanation for the questions "Why me?" or "Why her?" But what if
it turns out that although Job does suffer, the book is not really
about his suffering? If ever a book needed a "How to Read"
instruction manual, it is the book of Job. And when two respected
Old Testament scholars team up-both of whom have written
commentaries on Job-we have a matchless guide to reading and
appreciating the book. From their analysis of its place in the
wisdom literature of the Bible and the ancient Near East to their
discussions of its literary features and relationship to history,
Walton and Longman give us the best of their expertise. They
explore the theology of Job, placing it within Israelite religion
and Old Testament theology. And they coach us in how to read Job as
Christians. When it turns out the book is not what we thought it
was, our reading is richly layered and more satisfying. Whether you
are preparing for preaching, teaching, leading a Bible study,
studying for a class or for personal enrichment, How to Read Job is
your starting point.
