- Title
The Developing Narrative of the Life of Job: The Implications of Some Shared Elements of the Book of Tobit and the Testament of Job.
- Authors
TROTTER, JONATHAN R.
- Abstract
In part 1, I draw attention to striking similarities between the Book of Tobit and the Testament of Job, both of which make use of the figure of Job in shaping their narratives. In part 2, 1 suggest that, rather than simply interpreting the biblical Book of Job, both of these works provide independent witness to a complex developing tradition about the charity-filled life of Job known to both authors.
