"Wild Fire," Michael Battle, The Christian Century, 2001. Religion Online.
 | "Perhaps we should
feel insecure in making the claim that Christians are called to suffer,
but consider the vision of Job, who sees God only "after my skin has been
thus destroyed." And so we must claim that we are called to suffer if we
want to see the living God." |

"Belief, Desire and Wish in Job 19:23-27: Clues for the Identity of Job's
'Redeemer'," David J.A. Clines, On the Way to the Postmodern,
1998.
|
"What Job desires is to
see God vindicating him before he dies. What he knows (that is, has the
firmest conviction about) is that he will be vindicated ultimately but not
before he dies, and not because God is just but because his cause is just." |
|
|
"The Arguments of Job's Three Friends," David J.A. Clines, On the Way to
the Postmodern," 1998.
| "Even in their style of argumentation,
the friends provide a static stylized background against which the
tortured but adventurous hero of the book excites our imagination and
sympathy." |
