An Epic of Job, The Warrior-Priest is fictionally, symbolically, and allegorically based on the Book of Job in the Old Testament. This fictional story of Job gives life to his unshakable faith and his tragic loss of his ten-children and beloved wife. This warrior-priest goes through three major conquests in the epic which is a long poem, 142 pages, and is primarily written in iambic pentameter.
