Job
The introduction below is from
Chuck Smith's Old Testament Study Guide,
available from all good Christian bookshops (contact
DCF
for details):
The book of Job
begins the books of poetry in the Bible; Job, Psalms,
Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon. The books do
not fit a chronological order. Although the book of Job
follows the book of Esther, Job probably lived during the
book of Genesis, being a contemporary of Abraham. Job is
believed by many to be the oldest book in the Bible.
Hebrew
poetry does not rhyme or have a rhythm to it, but gives
parallel thoughts or contrasting thoughts. The beauty of
this poetry is the repetition of a thought with a slight
change or addition.
Job was
reduced to the bare essence of existence. Everything
important was stripped away from Job: his possessions,
family, friends, and his health. When you have lost
everything day-to-day worries lose their meaning. When
everything is stripped away, what are the things that are
expresses? What are the cries? And thus, Job becomes a godly
example as we listen to his cries.
