Download or read book The Book of Job written by Robert D. Sacks and published by Kafir Yaroq Books. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert D. Sacks has rendered the bold and vivid poetic imagery of the Hebrew original in English prose that is equally bold and equally vivid while remaining solidly grounded in the nuances of meaning and diversity of resonances present in the Hebrew text. The result is a translation often startling in its power and insight, opening the way to a deeper undertanding of this profound and unsettling book. Numerous notes provide enlightening but unobtrusive explanation of many of the translator s choices. In a separate chapter-by-chapter commentary, Sacks offers sustained original reflection on the several characters, their intentions, and their core beliefs."

Download or read book A Time to Tear Down and a Time to Build Up written by Michael V. Fox and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pervaded as it is with pessimism, paradox, and a multitude of contradictions, Ecclesiastes has long been one of the most difficult books of the Bible to understand. As this study demonstrates, however, it is precisely these contradictions that make Ecclesiastes so meaningful and so powerfully relevant to life in the world. By looking carefully at the language and thought of Ecclesiastes, as well as at its uses of contradictions in probing the meaning of life, Fox confronts the problems that have confounded interpretation of this biblical book. He shows that by using contradiction to tear down holistic claims of meaning and purpose in the world and rebuilding meaning in a local, restricted sense instead, the author of Ecclesiastes shapes a bold, honest-and ultimately uplifting-vision of life. Based on solid scholarly insight yet readable by all, Fox's work provides some of the best commentary available on this challenging section of Scripture.

In the first two chapters is contained a brief account of the excellent character and flourishing condition of Job;--of Ihe afflictions decreed in heaven to be sent upon him, and the design of those afflictions, namely, to prove thefl disinterestedness and firmness of his integrity and piety--of the actual occurrence of these afflictions, and of Job's conduct under them;--and of the visit of three of his friends to mourn with him and comfort him. The character of this introduction, so far as it relates to the upper world, is thus given by Scott: "This is not history, but a piece of allegori cal scenery. The noble instruction which it veileth is, that God governs the world by the instrumentality of second causes, that the evils of human life are under his direction, and that the afflictions of good men are appointed by him for the illustration of their virtue, and for advancing, by that means, the honor of religion." The learned Mr. Poole also observes: You must not think that these things were really done;... but it is only a parabolical representation of that great truth, that God, by his wise and holy providence, doth govern all the actions of men and devils to his own ends." Considered as a part of the whole work, the design of these chapters is to suggest the subject of discussion, and, in part, to illustrate it; and also to dispose the reader to a favorable opinion of Job See introduction, p. 18. Ch. LI.--Job. The most probable meaning of the name is persecuted, harassed. See Ges. ad verb. 3.--three thousand camels. The Arabs used these animals in war, in their caravans, and for food. One of their ancient poets, whose hospitality grew into a proverb, is reported to have killed yearly, in a certain month, ten camels every day, for the ...

Download or read book Job written by Edward L. Greenstein and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revelatory new translation of Job by one of the world's leading biblical scholars will reshape the way we read this canonical text The book of Job has often been called the greatest poem ever written. The book, in Edward Greenstein's characterization, is "a Wunderkind, a genius emerging out of the confluence of two literary streams" which "dazzles like Shakespeare with unrivaled vocabulary and a penchant for linguistic innovation." Despite the text's literary prestige and cultural prominence, no English translation has come close to conveying the proper sense of the original. The book has consequently been misunderstood in innumerable details and in its main themes. Edward Greenstein's new translation of Job is the culmination of decades of intensive research and painstaking philological and literary analysis, offering a major reinterpretation of this canonical text. Through his beautifully rendered translation and insightful introduction and commentary, Greenstein presents a new perspective: Job, he shows, was defiant of God until the end. The book is more about speaking truth to power than the problem of unjust suffering.
