Barry G. Webb explores the book of Job as a reflection on the paradox of righteous suffering. Job confronts the troubling issues that life throws at us as we try to live in trusting obedience to God. Wisdom shows us how to live in relation to God when we don't have answers for all of life's problems. With detailed exegesis and biblical-theological synthesis, Webb explores Job's unique theology of creation, evil, wisdom, justice, redemption, and God's character, tracing these themes across the canon.
The Evangelical Biblical Theology Commentary (EBTC) series locates each biblical book within redemptive history and illuminates its unique theological contributions. All EBTC volumes feature informed exegetical treatment of the biblical book and thorough discussion of its most important theological themes in relation to the canon-all in a style that is useful and accessible to students of Scripture.

Modern readers have no qualms about admitting the notorious textual and theological difficulties relating to the book of Job. In this commentary, eminent professor of Old Testament Barry Webb provides an expository resource that encounters Jobs challenges head on.

Situating Job in its biblical context, Webb consistently expounds upon Jobs distinct contribution to the Bibles overall theology, and particularly its distinct participation in biblical wisdom. Webbs commentary is an engaging and stimulating contribution to the study of Job that will benefit the scholar, challenge the layperson, and assist the expositor in proclaiming the relevance of the age-old and sometimes enigmatic composition to a contemporary audience.
