Job: A Pastoral and Contextual Commentary

The book of Job engages with the issue of pain and suffering. Job asked the same question that we have probably asked a hundred times - why do the righteous suffer? In his pain, he decided to file a case against God, but he rescinded in a moment of truth. He realized God's purpose for allowing pain was to have a deeper experience of the living God. This commentary expounds and explains how one can see a good God in the midst of life's sufferings. The Asia Bible Commentary Series empowers Christian believers in Asia to read the Bible from within their respective contexts. Holistic in its approach to the text, each exposition of the biblical books combines exegesis and application. The ultimate goal is to strengthen the Body of Christ in Asia by providing a pastoral and contextual exposition of every book of the Bible.
