The Book of Job is a profound exploration of the question: Why do bad things happen to good people? In this narrative, Job, a just and prosperous man, endures immense suffering and searches for understanding. Amidst his pain, Job declares his faith in a living Redeemer, foreshadowing Jesus Christ, who arrives thousands of years later. The story not only reveals Job's unwavering trust in God but also points to the salvation offered by Jesus, the Redeemer.
