All 66 Books: Job

Need some background info on this series? See here and here.

Job was the next book I read after Genesis in my Chronological Bible. From my understanding, the story takes place during the time of Genesis, so even though traditionally it is the 18th book of the Bible and after Esther, it was helpful to read it in the context of when it happened.  According to Crossway, it takes 1 hour and 46 minutes to read Job.

Just a reminder, it’s best to let scripture interpret scripture. I like these resources because they help me better understand scripture, but I may not agree with everything they say. As in all things, pray and invite God to help you in your time of reading and studying. Allow the Holy Spirit to guide you and use discernment when using resources outside of the Bible itself. “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15 NIV)

Here are some additional resources I recommend looking into after you read Job through on your own:
