Diverse images of God in the book of Job

13 August 2012 (has links)
M.Th. / In this study Ideological and Sacred Textures from Robbins' socio - rhetorical approach, were utilised in reading Job. The aim was to identify diverse images of God; those constructed by the author of Job as well as diverse images of God surfacing through the receipt of the Joban text by different interpreters. It was found that adherents to different ideologies construct different sacred or God - images. The followers of the doctrine of retribution from God into a retributive God and those believing in protest wisdom make Him a sovereign God. It was further found that the two mega - images of God should be regarded as complementary. Some extreme images of interpreters were discarded, while others were utilised to enrich our understanding of God. It is only through dialoguing that these diverse images of God can meaningfully interact and enrich each other.
