When Bad Things Happen to Good People: The Timeless Challenge of Job
The ancient Book of Job confronts the most haunting question in human history: Why do good people suffer? Harold Kushner's analysis isn't just scholarly interpretation-it's the culmination of a deeply personal journey. After proposing to write about God's role in human tragedy as a young rabbi, life prepared him through the most painful education imaginable-watching his own son Aaron die from progeria, a rare aging disease, at just fourteen years old. This experience transformed Kushner's understanding of suffering and divine justice, insights he brings to this profound biblical text that Alfred Lord Tennyson once called "the greatest poem of ancient and modern times." Beyond religious circles, Job's story has shaped everything from literature to film, from MacLeish's play "J.B." to the Coen brothers' "A Serious Man"-because its central question transcends time and culture: How do we make sense of a world where suffering seems random and justice uncertain?
