Endorsements:''A novel is a novel way of entering into the world of biblical textual criticism! Fisher’s novel about the writing of the Job poem and how its message was largely silenced by locating it within the more ancient story is a likely tale that, in any case, brings to life the world of scholars at David’s court. It also shows that modern skepticism is not so modern after all!''--John Cobb, Emeritus Professor, Claremont School of TheologyAbout the Contributor(s):Loren R. Fisher retired as Professor of Hebrew Bible at the School of Theology at Claremont and as Professor of Semitic Languages and Literature at the Claremont Graduate University. He is the author of The Many Voices of Job, Tales from Ancient Egypt, The Jerusalem Academy, and the editor of Ras Shamra Parallels, vols. 1 and 2.
