The epilogue, Pelham argues, changes the book from one containing answers about creation to one which poses questions: What does it mean to make the world? Who has the power to create? If humans have creative power, is it divinely sanctioned, or has Job, acting creatively, set himself up as God’s rival? Engaging more thoroughly with Job’s ambiguity than previous scholars have done, Contested Creations explores the possibilities raised by these questions and considers their implications both within the book and beyond. Includes bibliographical references and indexes. Creation Biblical teaching. Bible. Job Criticism, interpretation, etc. 90-04-21820-3 Biblical interpretation series ; v. 113. |
