This research paper: A 4 page essay that discusses the message of the Book of Job. This Old Testament narrative addresses one of the principal questions that has troubled humanity for millennia when considering the human condition. The question is simple: Why do bad things happen to good people? The answer, within the Judeo/Christian tradition is complicated by the fact that this religious perspective considers God to both merciful and just. The Book of Job presents a situation in which a just, honest, and righteous man is cruelly treated by God to test his faith. Three friends respond to Job's suffering and their debate summarizes the reactions of humanity to suffering. The Book of Job ends by presenting a rationale that justifies divine actions with human realities. No additional sources cited.
