"Explores different types of trials throughout Scripture, revealing the spiritual purpose for each and reassuring readers with God's promise of restoration. The majority of the book focuses on Job and his sufferings"-- Provided by publisher

The exploration of Behemoth and Leviathan in the book of Job reveals deeper themes of cosmic chaos and divine justice. Eric Ortlund argues that these creatures symbolize the evil present in creation, suggesting that God’s description serves to address Job’s concerns about suffering and divine oversight. By interpreting these figures supernaturally, readers can grasp the intended climax of the narrative, emphasizing God's control over chaos and the importance of faith amidst adversity. This volume aims to enhance understanding of biblical theology while engaging with contemporary scholarship.
