The author brings Barth's theological commentary into engagement with a wide range of current critical work on Job, allowing the divergence between these approaches to stimulate critique and enrichment on both sides. The reading finds its focus in an emergent understanding of Job's self, which is at once biblical, psychological, philosophical, historical and theological.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Susannah Ticciati</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Job</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Barth, Karl -- 1886-1968</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible - Old Testament - Criticism, interpretation, etc</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">233.106</classification> <classification authority="ddc">T555-S96</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780567041135, 0567041131</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14861/jo.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14861/jo.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071419.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
