About Job

Job wrestles with why a righteous man suffers — through poetic dialogues that refuse easy answers and end with God's overwhelming presence.

Key verses

Frequently asked about Job

What is the message of Job?: The book refuses 'you must have sinned' explanations of suffering. Faith trusts God's character even when his reasons stay hidden.
Why does God answer with questions, not explanations?: God reframes the issue: a creature can trust the Creator without understanding everything.
