Exegesis and Theology of the Book of Job exposes students to a detailed, close reading of the book of Job with careful attention to its literary structure and features and its theological and pastoral implications. This course uses these exegetical and theological insights as a foundation for considering the practical ministry implications of the book in contemporary culture. Specifically, this course explores the significance of the book of Job’s focus on speech ethics to inform the church’s ministry in the lives of those who suffer to encourage lament and the appropriate processing of grief.
