Life can be hard, and sometimes it seems like God doesn't even care. When faced with difficult trials, many people have resonated with the book of Job--the story of a man who lost nearly everything, seemingly abandoned by God. In this thorough and accessible commentary, Christopher Ash helps us glean encouragement from God's Word by directing our attention to the final explanation and ultimate resolution of Job's story: the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Intended to equip pastors to preach Job's important message, this commentary highlights God's grace and wisdom in the midst of redemptive suffering. Taking a staggeringly honest look at our broken world and the trials that we often face, Ash helps us see God's sovereign purposes for adversity and the wonderful hope that Christians have in Christ. Part of the Preaching the Word series.… (altro)

Incipit

[A Word to Those Who Preach the Word] There are times when I am preaching that I have especially sensed the pleasure of God.
[Preface] "The grandest book ever written with pen." So wrote the Victorian essayist Thomas Carlyle about the Old Testament book of Job.
Introduction] The book of Job raises three big questions: What kind of world do we live in? What kind of church should we want? What kind of Savior do we need.
In what sort of a world would you like to live?
[Epilogue] Now we come to the marvelous conclusion of the book of Job.
[Conclusion] Too often we come to the book of Job (as to other parts of the Bible) expecting answers to our questions, and especially to questions about suffering.

[A Word to Those Who Preach the Word] The pleasure of God is a matter of logos (the Word), ethos (what you are), and pathos (your passion). As you preach the Word may you experience his smile--the Holy Spirit in your sails!
