Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to one of the most influential books from antiquity, the primary author of which is meticulously identified. It places the themes within their historical context and explores the rich tapestry of meaning that has captivated readers for centuries. The Bible for Home and School carefully considers differing viewpoints, including those of the first-century Jewish philosopher Philo and the second-century church father Origen, to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Job narrative.
