Ancient Churches Lexicon Entry:

Job

Back to: Lexicon Index | Lexicon Home


The Book of Job was a book of the Ancient Church (AC 9942). It was written in correspondences and therefore contains an internal sense (TCR 201, WH 16). However, this internal sense is not in series and does not deal with heaven and the church (WH 16, AE 543). Because of this, the Book of Job is not a book of the Word (AE 543).
