 Extra Info:  "What the Bible is all About" by Henrietta C. Mears, Tyndale House Publishers, May 1967, Chapter 15 Understanding Job - Job portrays Jesus Christ, our Redeemer.  Page 153 " We have finished reading the historical books of the Old Testament--Joshua through Esther, now we open the books of poetry--Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon.  These books tell of the experiences of the heart.  It is fitting that the oldest book deals with the oldest problems.  Among these is "Why do godly people suffer?"  This is the theme of the book. Page 154 "This book should be read as a narrative. The story of Job is a simple one. It opens with a scene in heaven and then tells of Job's fall from prosperity to poverty. This is followed by the great discussion between Job and his four friends: Eliphaz the religious dogmatist, much like an ancient Pharisee; Bildad, who sought to comfort Job with worn-out platitudes; and Zophar, who thought he had the corner on all religious wisdom.  Then comes Elihu, the impetuous youth. Finally, the climax is reached when God speaks.  Job answers, at last in a humble spirit, and the problem are solved."
