Job (The Smyth & Helwys Bible Commentary) |
 |
Title: Job (The Smyth & Helwys Bible Commentary, V.10)
Author: Samuel E. Balentine |
The book of Job is considered by many to be the crown jewel of biblical literature in its claim to speak about God. The word that defines the challenge for every reader of the book is "struggle". The struggle results from the fact that whatever Job's truth may be, he was neither the first nor the last to try to articulate it. In the midst of so many words in this world about God from writers within and outside the scriptural witness, this book offers a truly astonishing declaration about what it means to live in a world where order breaks down and chaos runs amok, where the innocent suffer and the wicked thrive, where cries for help go unanswered. This new commentary by biblical scholar Samuel Balentine leads readers on an in-depth and far-reaching look at the nature of the book of Job & and the various attempts by the many who have sought to further explore Job's essential struggle. |

Word Biblical Commentary, Job 21-37 |
 |
Title: Word Biblical Commentary Vol. 18a, Job 21-37
Author: David J.A. Clines |
The Word Biblical Commentary series "harvests the important historical, textual, literary, and archaeological discoveries to serve the needs of professional scholars and teachers, students of the Bible and theology, working ministers, and anyone who wants a theological understanding from Scripture." Add to that exalted series the second part of David Cline's commentary on the book of Job, covering chapters 21-37. Cline's masterful exposition of Job consistently maintains alertness to both the windings of its arguments and the theological problem it raises, which is the conflict of faith and experience. Let Cline guide you through what he sees as the "most theologically and intellectually intense book of the Old Testament." Gain a measure of Cline's appreciation for the craftsmanship inherent in Job, as he looks at how its author ties together metaphor and theology. |

Job (Westminster Bible Companion) |
 |
Title: Job (WeBC) (Westminster Bible Companion)
Author: James A. Wharton |
Wharton concludes that the function of Job never has been to provide answers but to keep the questions urgent and contemporary for all who set out to honour and serve God. At the simplest and most important level Job provides faithful people with this slim comfort: it resounds with our cries of the heart and honours those cries as an authentic dimension of faithfulness. |
