Abstract
My interest in researching Job as a nascent form of apocalypse was first piqued in 1998 by Dr. Duane Garrett's stimulating lectures at Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. Upon discovering that scholars such as John J. Collins and Christopher Rowland had also intimated Job's affinities with apocalypse, I began the long journey that has culminated in this effort to flesh out Job's association with apocalyptic literature.
