Synopsis
ENG
Despite its general absence from the Jewish liturgical cycle and its limited place in Jewish practice, the Book of Job has permeated Jewish culture over the last 2,000 years. Job has not only had to endure the suffering described in the biblical book, but the efforts of countless commentators, interpreters, and creative rewriters whose explanations more often than not challenged the protagonist's righteousness in order to preserve Divine justice. Beginning with five critical essays on the specific efforts of ancient, medieval, and modern Jewish writers to make sense of the biblical book, this volume concludes with a detailed survey of the place of Job in the Talmud and Midrashic corpus, in medieval biblical commentary, in ethical, mystical, and philosophical tracts, as well as in poetry and creative writing in a wide variety of Jewish languages from around the world from the second to sixteenth centuries.

Несмотря на отсутствие в еврейском литургическом цикле и ограниченное место в еврейской религиозной практике, Книга Иова определяет еврейскую культуру на протяжении последних 2000 лет. Усилия бесчисленных комментаторов, толкователей и творческих переписчиков сосредоточились на попытках доказать Божественную справедливость страданий, обрушившихся на Иова. Книга Джейсона Кальмана описывает богатую традицию осмысления этой библейской книги в древних, средневековых и современных еврейских текстах, таких как Талмуд, мидраши и средневековые трактаты еврейских мудрецов.
