PW: Job

The Wisdom of the Cross.
Pain. Suffering. Loneliness. Life can be hard, and sometimes it seems like God
doesn't even care. In the midst of difficult trials, many people have resonated
with the book of Job - the story of a man who lost nearly everything, seemingly
abandoned by God. Christopher Ash helps us glean encouragement from God's Word
in this meditative commentary by directing our attention to the final
explanation and ultimate resolution of Job's story: the life, death, and
resurrection of Jesus Christ. Taking a staggeringly honest look at our broken
world and the trials that we often face, this volume offers readers a glimpse
of God's sovereign purposes for suffering and the incredible hope that we have
in Christ.
This is one of the finest Biblical commentaries I have had the privilege " to read, and certainly the best I know on the wonderful but perplexing book of
Job. Christopher Ash takes us into the depths of this book, taking no
shortcuts. He guides us through the details, helping us to see the brilliance
of the poetry and the profundity of the questions raised. More than this he
helps us to see how the sufferings of Jesus shed brilliant light into the
darkest corners of Job's experience. In turn the book of Job deepens our
understanding of Jesus' blameless suffering, and the suffering and darkness
experienced by those who share in the sufferings of Christ. This is a
powerfully edifying exposition. - John Woodhouse"
