The Drama of Job

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Finlan’s The Drama of Job is a meaningful contribution to the conversation surrounding suffering, its source, and what it might require of us. In Elihu’s speech, a figure both revered and dismissed, he finds a living concept of mercy. Building on Elihu’s admonitions, Finlan describes the active awareness required both to discern the causes of suffering and to effectively react to the suffering of ourselves and others.”
