I can understand the complaining. I understand the posturing of Job's "friends" and the rationalization of his suffering. But when God shows up to "answer" Job... WHOA! Get out of the way! Hide your face, shut your mouth, and marvel at all that is the Almighty God. As far as scholarship, there are a few books I would recommend that could help you in your study but that won't bog you down. Tradition says that Moses wrote Genesis. Thanks for catching my typos bro! Brandon,

NO, is KNOW. under the bold in point #1, but LOVED the thought. Very interesting that you say scholars believe Job was the first book written... where can I find stuff like that? I'd like to chronologize the OT and NT, so i have the concept. Imagine this... Just read Job 36-39 the other day, and started thinking... how would I react if God said... "Brace yourself like a man, I will question you and you shall answer me." I just sat and wept. Ever wondered who wrote Genesis? GREAT STUFF MIKE.
