The Book of Job in the Old Testament poses the question, paradigmatically, of a meaningful relationship with God in view of unjust suffering. In this work, Sonja Feldmar studies those passages which were added during the later stages of writing, a process which took several hundred years, and provide an answer which had not been thought of up to that point: the hope of a relationship with God which transcends death and compensates for the suffering in this life.
