For centuries, the book of Job has been used to explore and interrogate the mystery of human life by artists, their works then shaping subsequent readers’ expectations. In this book, Philip S. Thomas brings six such works into dialogue with the book of Job to draw out some of their insights and the challenges they offer contemporary interpreters.
