Suffering, freedom and justice as well as the mysteriousness of God
are among the great themes of human existence. In the Book of Job
they are poetically reflected in tremendous density. The circles
involved in its creation play with the literary traditions of
ancient Israel and early Judaism and bring different theologies of
cult, legal and wisdom origins into a polyphonic conversation. The
present commentary traces this conversation with a view to its
literary origin and its reception in early Judaism and early
Christianity. Theodicy poems from the ancient oriental environment
are included in the translation and verse-by-verse interpretation
of the individual chapters of the Book of Job, as are Egyptian
wisdom texts and philosophical discourses from the Greek and Roman
environment of the Old Testament. Individual excursions provide
information on the anthropological, ethical, mythological and
theological backgrounds of the Book of Job.
