About this product
Product Information
Why does a good God allow innocent suffering? Why does a just God act unfairly? Why does a sovereign God let disease and evil run rampant? These are not questions asked from the onlooker's armchair, nor from the academic's desk, but from the anguish of the sickbed and the frustration of the wheelchair. The problem of pain is considered with the heart as well as the head. Christopher Ash leads us through the biblical story of Job as we wrestle with these questions today. He honestly explores the lonely and cruel nature of suffering and whether God can be found in the midst of it. He exposes the shortcomings of Job's friends who deny the possibility of innocent suffering, and are unaware of the roles that Satan, the fall and the cross have to play. With compassion and clarity he takes the reader through Job's long debate with God - towards a humbling and hopeful resolution.Product Identifiers

Brilliant overview of the book of Job.
A wonderful overview of the book of Job. It does everything that it sets out to do, and more. I have read several commentaries on Job, but this overview was still anything but redundant. I had never thought of Job's sufferings in the light of Jesus and the cross, but this book reveals it wonderfully. Nothing trite, a lot of painful experience and prayerful consideration must have gone into it. I found it a book that I had to lend out, to other Christians, going through a hard time. (Only the poorly conceived book-cover is poor IMO.) After reading this, I also bought his full length Job commentary in the "Preaching the Word" series. Also excellent. My favourite, and non technical.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
