Hello reader,

The question is: (sorry if this was wrong place to post, for I am curious to anyone who has read and has studied the book of Job).

Does anyone know why or understand how, the book of Job is considered poetry?

Thank you for your response ahead of time,
Matthew Gallagher

Never heard of that Matt, likely it might contain what some call poetry, as well as other books the same could be said. Is it poetry overall, I would say no, the book of Job is I would say the best book that gives us insight to a behind the scenes look at satan and his rebellion, as well as some of his traps. It helps us to see as well the heavenly scene of organization, and how particular angels have stations. It helps greatly in coping with false accusations from others who share your faith.
