This presentation discusses ancient Jewish interpretations of the figure of Job. Dr. Angela Kim Harkins, Associate Professor of New Testament, Boston College School of Theology and Ministry, explores how ancient readers sought to better understand Job and the people who knew him best, namely his wife and children, through various interpretations that link the figure of Job to the book of Genesis.
