Synopsis

This new commentary on the book of Job, in the distinguished 'Readings' series, is a non-technical commentary. The Introduction deals with the nature and purpose of the book, its specific and distinctive theology, its themes and its various parts and their mutual relationship. Thereafter, Norman Whybray, who is renowned for his insightful commentaries, usually comments on small sections of the text, and verse-by-verse in some especially difficult passages. As a whole, his commentary is illustratative of the fact that the book of Job is more concerned with the nature of God than with the problem of suffering.
