What reading level is An Introduction to the Old Testament book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1 7 ff. ; Ps. Ixxii. And Job xxix. ; Prov. Xvi. 15 and Job xxix. 23 ff. ; Hos. Ii. 8 and Job. Xix. 8; Isa. Xix. 5 and Job xiv. 11. The con- nection is more apparent in the Hebrew original, and it is not easy to decide in all these cases which is the earlier passage. There are also many other quotations from, or imitations of. Job in other books of the Old Testament.
148 THE POETICAL BOOKS.
The patriarch Job is depicted in the book as one who lived in the early patriarchal period. But that fact ...is not sufficient to prove the poem to have been as early as Moses, as the older commentators maintained. The historical references in the poem are uncertain, for the author has shown much skill in concealing his personal surroundings. The reference in chap. Xii. 14-25 to the deportation of people from one country to another tends to prove that the book is later than the Assyrian empire, although some distinguished critics have assigned it to the Solomonic period of Hebrew literature. The most probable time for its composition is between Isaiah and Jeremiah.
