Included Titles
The Book of Job Arranged for stage by Orlin Corey and designed for stage by Irene Corey. From the King James version of the Bible.
The Book of Job is a story of endurance and faith that is embraced by many world cultures. Job, a very wealthy man, loses everything except his faith in God. The elders of his community come to counsel him. Each believes that he holds the answer to Job's troubles, but Job clings only to God's promise. The voice of God speaks from a whirlwind in poetic metaphor of the vast mysteries of creation and power. Job's reverence to God remains strong and he is rewarded.
