Job’s Life: Moral Issues in the Discourses of the Book of Job

This ethico-theological study analyzes aspects of moral issues from the accounts found in the book of Job. As described at the beginning of the book, the beautiful life that Job had is lost by him through a series of successive acts aimed at his mental destabilization. An apparent understanding between divinity, such as the one who blessed Job, and Satan, the one who wants to destroy Job, leads to the righteous Job losing everything he had in family and wealth, leaving only his wife, who seems to be he began to delirium mentally. This study is divided into seven essential parts for finalizing the aspects of moral issues. In the first part, we will deal with Job as a natural and historical person. Then we will focus on the moral issues that arise from the discourses found in the book of Job. In this part we will dwell on some ideas launched in the public space, such as Job as an experiment, the reasoning of Job's friends and their theological thinking, and then apply the filter of Kantian morality to this issue, ending with the suspension of normality in the book of Job and with the presentation of Job as a New Testament person.
