520 | |a The Old Testament Book of Job has fascinated scholars and laymen for centuries. The book consists of a long poem with a prologue and epilogue in prose. Its theme is the problem of Job's undeserved suffering. Like many other ancient Near Eastern texts, it provides a test case for the justice of divine retribution. Job's friends represent a petrified theology that persists in dogmatic insensitivity through closing its eyes to Job's problems. Job is consequently driven to rebellion against God. The book is generally approached in terms of either a wisdom model or psalm model or juridical model (or some other model in which a specific theme provides the premiss). Such models prove too one-sided on their own, but they each contain elements of value which can contribute towards a more integrated view. The meaning of the book becomes to a large extent apparent in the fact that the arguments both of Job and his friends are caught in vicious circles. Implicit here is a rejection both of orthodox rigorism and of the resultant rebellion. God's righteousness is not to be explained within a scheme. | ||
