Samuel E. Balentine
This collection of eighteen essays addresses critical theological and ethical issues in the book of Job: (1) Prologue: From Eden to Uz; (2) Job and His Friends: What Provokes You that You Keep on Talking? ; (3) Job and the Priests: Look At Me and Be Appalled; (4) Traumatizing Job: God Has Worn Me Out; (5) Out of the Whirlwind: Can You Thunder with A Voice Like God’s? ; (6) Preaching Job and Job’s God: Listen Carefully to My Words; (7) Epilogue: All’s Well That Ends Well … or Is it? The lead essay raises the question that lingers over the entire book: What are we to think of a God who is complicit in the death of seven sons and three daughters for no reason ?
