The New Testament Timothy writes in Chapter 2:5-6. "For
there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus;
Who gave Himself a ransom for all …" Job, centuries before the birth of
the Messiah, knew he was in need of a Savior, a Mediator; and he longed for
Jesus.
The authorship and exact date of the Book of Job are not
definitively known. Scholars generally agree that it was written between the 7th
and 3rd centuries BCE. Theories on the author range from a Jewish sage to a
prophet, but there is no consensus. Some even speculate that Moses could have
been the author, but this remains a hypothesis without concrete evidence. The
Book of Job is part of the Ketuvim, or "Writings," section of the
Hebrew Bible and addresses the theme of theodicy, which is the question of why
a good God permits the manifestation of evil.
