Description

The book of Job is one of the oldest surviving pieces of writing in human history. It also deals with two of the biggest questions that humans have asked throughout history - what is God like, and why does he allow such suffering in the world? Allow Phil to take you on a journey through the book of Job to discover insights that have shaped the way that people have viewed God and viewed humanity for over 3,000 years.

God inspired the Bible for a reason. He wants you read it and let it change your life. If you are willing to take this challenge seriously, then you will love Phil Moore’s devotional commentaries. Their bite-sized chapters are punchy and relevant, yet crammed with fascinating scholarship. Welcome to a new way of reading the Bible. Welcome to the Straight to the Heart series.

I have found this commentary very helpful and learned things that I didn't know by simply reading the book of Job at first glance. The writer has done his research about the time and culture. His Eloquence runs through the whole book and his anecdotes make it more interesting and relevant.
I would recommend this book to be translated into Spanish. I believe that other readers will find this commentary helpful while studying Job.

I like this paragraph. “The book of job is honest. Some of the things that we are about to hear job and his friends say about God are meant to make our toes curl. Therefore God is inviting you to be real with him about your questions as you read, so that he can give you real answers.”

All opinions expressed on this review are mine alone.


He encontrado este comentario muy útil y he aprendido muchas cosas que simplemente al leer el libro de Job no hubiese entendido. El escritor ha hecho su investigación del tiempo y la cultura que se expone. Su elocuencia recorre todo el libro y sus anécdotas lo hacen más interesante y relevante.
Recomendaria que este libro fuera traducido al español. Creo que otros lectores encontrarán este comentario útil a la hora de estudiar el libro de Job o para alguna referencia.
Me encanta este párrafo. “El libro de Job es honesto. Algunas de las cosas que estamos a punto de escuchar a Job y sus amigos decir acerca de Dios, harán que nuestros dedos de los pies se doblen. Por lo tanto, Dios te invita a ser sincero con él acerca de tus preguntas mientras lees, para que él pueda darte respuestas reales. "
