The Book Of Job

For whatever reason, Stephen Mitchell's translation of Job is treated as a separate book on Mustich's 1000 books list, and I finished Job today (book 94!) as I work through reading the entire Bible this year.

11 years of Catholic school and I can tell you with clarity that my only knowledge of Job was that he was patient.

That is not really what I took from this read-through. What a fascinating, often frustrating story.
