Understanding the Book of Job -

Описание: Why does the righteous suffer?
What kind of book is Job — wisdom literature, courtroom drama, philosophical poetry, or theological protest?
How should we read God’s speeches from the whirlwind?

In this live session, we explore the Book of Job in depth, examining its literary structure, historical background, Hebrew language features, major theological themes, and interpretive challenges. We look closely at questions of suffering, justice, divine sovereignty, human wisdom, and the limits of language when speaking about God.

Topics include:
📜 The structure and genre of the Book of Job
📖 Hebrew poetry, parallelism, and key vocabulary
🧠 The problem of evil and innocent suffering
⚖️ Job’s friends and ancient wisdom theology
🌪️ God’s speeches and the meaning of divine response
🏺 Ancient Near Eastern background and literary context
🎯 How Job should (and should not) be taught and preached

Whether you’re a pastor, student, Bible teacher, or serious reader of Scripture, this session offers tools for reading Job responsibly, thoughtfully, and with intellectual depth.
