As part of the Home Works 6 Platform, Ashkal Alwan is hosting a lecture by Hoda Barakat called “For the Love of God, Don\u2019t Sell Yourself Short: Reflections on Job”.<\/p>\n

Hoda Barakat visits the story of Job for a rereading, posing questions on the \u201cmeanings\u201d of the trial through which Satan and God had decided to put his faith and innocence to the test, and on the choices that made him the model of good and patience among his fellow men. <\/p>\n

The writer ponders the depth and motives of the resistance that made Job immune to blasphemy, and transformed him into an individual who took his strength from within\u2014realizing as he did that his fate was sealed between two great and superseding powers, to which he could hardly ever hope to answer. <\/p>\n

The writer proposed that somewhere between the popular folktale and its biblical origins, Job may have told an altogether different version of his story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
