Synopsis

The Drama of Job dives into the vigorous theological debate about the problem of suffering and the requirements of faith in the book of Job. Several intriguing responses or answers are voiced by the characters, but none is fully satisfying. The value and the inadequacy of each answer are examined. The emphasis is upon Job's and Elihu's attempts to get at the truth. Elihu stresses God's mercy, speaking of God's varied and energetic attempts to rescue people. The appendix provides a daring stageplay, highlighting the significance of Elihu.
