Lectures on Job

What does faith mean when the righteous suffer? Uchimura Kanzō’s twenty-one lectures approach Job as a living history of the human spirit.

Close reading meets reflections on grief, friendship, the stars, and the sea. Easy explanations give way to the difficult work of humility and forgiveness.

Delivered in 1920 and collected in 1925, the complete supplied work appears here in a new English translation with brief textual and historical notes. AI-assisted translation, prepared and edited by Valentin Sarić.
