The book of Job is one of the oldest books in the collection of books known as the Bible. The book is believed to be one of the first books written, despite its placement in the Old . This book chronicles the life of a man named Job. Job was a very wealthy man during his time period. He had a loving wife and ten children. He was an upright man and feared God, which, during this time period, many believed was why he was so wealthy and prosperous. However, one day Satan made a bet with God that if God stripped Job of all his worldly possesions, Job would curse God and forsake Him. God told Satan he could do to Job as he wished, as long as he did not touch him physically. All in one terribly tragic day, Job lost all of his worldy possesions, and his sons and ghters. One by one everything he had was stripped from him. His wife began to nag at him about just ending his life, and all of his friends turned on him and told him he must have sin in his life. Job, however, did not curse God. Satan came back to God and told Him that if Job were also stripped of his health, he would then surely curse God. So God allowed Satan to touch Job physically as well. Job was cursed with a terrible bout of boils all over his body, which were extremely painful and most likely disgusting for others to look at. All of these things had started to get to Job a little bit, and he knew, unlike his friends told him, that he had done nothing wrong by God. While Job did not curse God, he did tell God that he had done nothing wrong, and wanted an answer as to why this was happening to him. Rather than giving Job a flat out answer, God proceeded to tell Job how magnificant He really was. He asked Job a long string of questions, showing Job His magnitude and Job's tininess in the grand scheme of things. By the end of the book, Job places his trust back in God's sovereignty, and eventually aquires his possesions back, more than he had started with.

一般我们用bible和holy bible。但读英文圣经你就会发现，圣经中提到“圣经”一词时，并没有用bible，而是Scripture（注意，S是大写），你查字典就会发现scripture当首字母大写时，特指圣经。

圣经一、圣经素描：圣经是一本世界文学名著，至今已被译为1829种语言，年销三千万册左右。今日有十多亿人把圣经当作灵性生命的宝典和上主启示的泉源。圣经是一本内容深沉、年代久远的记录，在长年累月的宗教生活反省中孕育而成；记载的是先知、诗人、圣贤、使徒、民族英雄等与上主在一起的宗教经历和体验。他们在走过了人生伟大的旅程之后，有些人以口述的方式，有些人则以文字的记录，去把他们生命中酸、甜、苦、辣的遭遇，和他们对人生深刻的观察写下来，便成了今日圣经的主要骨骼。 圣经是一本有关生命的书，也是一本指向生命之道的书，里面的角色只是神、人、生命、天和地。所以它不是科学书，不是历史书、不是劝世文，也不是任何一本我们可以和其他著作一起归类的书。圣经充满理想，也十分脚踏实地；它是超越的，也是落实的。它虽然以神道为中心，却是为了发扬人道的精神；它有许多来世的叙述，却是为了教人如何活于今世。它的智慧恍如树林里的风声、旷野中的天籁。纯朴的人听到它的呼唤，热爱生命的人感到它的吸力。 这本书计述生、死，以及人在有生之年内的种种变化，和死后种种不同的命运。它曾目睹过一个民族多次的兴亡，也曾为一些成功的生命而歌颂，为一些失败的生命而惋惜。它里面的一切，似乎都在隐约地告诉我们：国家、民族有盛衰兴替的时机，人类、生命也有生死存亡的“变数”。这原是上主在创世时早已定下的法则，这也是我们习称的“客观规律”。 二、圣经小资料：1、圣经：英文的Holy Scriptures原指“圣的著作”。Bible则原是希腊文，即英文Book的，但要加上定冠词，成为The Bible，意指“那本书”。在教会传统中，圣经不必有名称（就如我们不必叫自己父亲的名字一样）因为圣经就是“那本书”，是“书中之书”，是生命之书，是最重要和最宝贵的书。中文的“经”则是指“天下之大经”，是做人处世或“立身经世”的根本大道，是生活应遵从的典范。 2、新旧约：圣经分为两大部分，前部分叫旧约，后部分叫新约。约（Testament）是指人神间的盟约、契约。旧约是为新约铺路的。 3、旧约：（Old Testament）原指天主与以色列民族在西乃山上所立的盟约。旧约这本书所记载的，是耶稣降生前的事迹。4、新约：（New Testament）是耶稣基督以自己的圣血和圣死，为全人类所立的永远盟约，称为新约。新约这本书所记载的是耶稣降生后的事迹。5、福音：新约中有关耶稣基督生平的那四卷书称为“福音”，福音即“喜讯”，因为耶稣基督的降生给人类带来了救恩的“好消息”。6、群书总汇：圣经不是一本单一的书，它包括旧约46卷，新约27卷，共73卷；先后经历1500年才完成，作者无数，执笔者40余人。（因为圣经很长时间先有“口传”，然后才笔录成书；所以“作者”多于“笔录者”）7、圣经的文学类型：圣经不是历史书，也不是科学书，它就是“圣经”。正如我们不能用历史的眼光去读西游记，不能用科学家的批判态度去对待唐诗三百首，同样我们也不能以非圣经的眼光去看圣经。圣经各卷的文学类型有传记、历史、律法、礼仪、诗歌、戏剧、寓言及神话等。因为上主要透过不同的文体，去启示他有关生命的奥秘，传达他对人所显示的计划和讯息。人只有在上主的光照下诚心找寻，才可明白圣经的真理。

圣经 shèng jīng [Religion] the Holy Bible; the Bible; the Holy Writ; the sacred volume; the Holy Scripture《圣经》是基督教的正式经典，又称《新旧约全书》。被奉为教义和神学的根本依据。内容主要包括历史、传奇、律法、诗歌、论述、书函等。将这些书定为正典圣书者认为各书具有神的启示和旨意。名称源于希腊文biblia，意为一组书卷，为复数词，拉丁化后成为单数词。《圣经》分为《旧约》与《新约》两大部分。“约”源于希腊文diathēkē，拉丁文作testamentum，意为盟约。《旧约》本为犹太教的正式经典，后被基督教承认为圣经，但基督教认为，旧约是上帝通过摩西与以色列人所订，新约则是通过耶稣基督与信者订立的。
