By Ken Brown

close to the start of the Joban Dialogues, Job's buddy Eliphaz is attributed a remarkably subversive imaginative and prescient (Job 4:12-21). Laced with pictures of divine judgment and deception, this imaginative and prescient undermines the very beginning of the chums' theology, and heavily conforms to Job's. specifically, the vision's targeted corporeal imagery and its end that anyone can unexpectedly perish mirror Job's attribute kind, and shape the root for his accusations of divine injustice. during this examine, Ken Brown argues that the tensions among the vision's current attribution to Eliphaz and its function within the discussion run a lot deeper than is usually perceived, and will simply be resolved via a reassessment of the book's improvement, either synchronic and diachronic. Brown means that the current order of task 3-4 and 25-27 is neither unique nor unintended, yet displays an intentional reframing of the discussion, and anticipates comparable strikes around the earliest reception of the book.
This paintings was once presented the Manfred Lautenschlaeger Award for Theological Promise 2016.
