The book of Job centres around one man’s agony and raises questions around suffering, justice, God’s sovereignty and about how the world is run. Ultimately, what we find in the book of Job is that these questions and struggles aren’t answered with intellectual explanations but are answered by an experience of God. At the end of the story Job doesn’t have many answers, but has become the kind of person that no matter what comes, good or bad, he can trust God’s wisdom.

Job | Additional Resources

The Wisdom Literature
The Bible is full of wisdom that continues to speak to us today! Job forms part of what is known as the wisdom literature - together with Ecclesiastes and Proverbs - that is made up of the combined wisdom of generations of God's people, helping us to contemplate what it means to live a good life. The Bible Project has put together a number of resources that are designed to help us understand the full collection of biblical wisdom, and exploring the questions found within. These can be found here.
