Edward L. Greenstein

Professor, Bar-Ilan University

A professor emeritus of Bible at Bar-Ilan University who has spent years studying the Book of Job, Edward L. Greenstein’s recently-published Job: A New Translation has been praised by Publishers Weekly as an “excellent, accessible translation that supports his new interpretation of the famous text.” The book, according to its publisher, relies on Greenstein's "decades of intensive research and painstaking philological and literary analysis," and offers a fresh perspective -- that Job "was defiant of God until the end."
