Description

Excerpt from A New Translation and Exposition of the Very Ancient Book of Job

Hebrew by birth and native language, and an Arabian by icng residence and local study. He adds, there is intrinsic evidence, that as a Hebrew he must have ?ou rished and have written the work antecedently to the Egyptian e''xody. The annals of the world do not present to us a single nation so completely wrapped up in their own history as the Hebrews. Throughout every book, both in the Old and New Testament, in which it could possibly be adverted to, the eye of the writer turns to different parts of it, and dwells Upon it with inextinguishable fondness The call of Abraham, the bondage and miracles in Egypt, the journeying through the wilderness, the delivery of the Law, the passage of the Red Sea and of Jordan, &c. &c., are perpetually brought before us, as ornaments and illustrations of the subject discussed. To none of these, however, does. The Book of Job make the smallest refer ence. He observes, moreover, that this poem is dcca sionally quoted and copied by almost every Hebrew Writer, who had an opportunity of referring to it, from the age of Moses to that of Malachi; especially by the Psalmist, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel - leading us by a collateral, though not quite so direct, a train of evidence, to a similar conclusion as to its high origin and anti quity.
