Hi glad2bcp, welcome to the forum. Your question has been 'up' for about 4 hours, so, although I am by no means an expert, I will do my best to answer before it gets too late. Then, the floor will be open for others more knowledgable than I. There is much speculation about the authorship of Job, the date, and even where Uz was. Some say that Job was a contemporary of Abraham, because the economy was that based on livestock, and Job lived to be more than 140 yrs old, a typical lifespan of the patriarchal period. And I have also heard that Job is the oldest Book in the Bible, which would place it around 1500 BC at the earliest. The events that took place are not necessarily contemporaneous with the writing og the Book. But, The details of the conversations between Job and his friends suggest that it would have been written in a not-too-distant future. Nevertheless, everything I have learned tells me that it must have been written after the flood. Otherwise, Noah would have had to carry the Book of Job onto the ark with him, right? Since there is no mention of Israel, my suggestion would be, that it is likely pre-mosaic, but not pre-flood Blessings to you, keliy |
