- Title
- Then the Lord Answered Job Out of the Whirlwind (1874)
- Student Commentary:
- On the left of this image from Blake’s Illustrations of the Book of Job (1874 reprint), Job and his wife are praying. Job has been begging for answers for his questions, specifically three of them: why was he born, how can he be square with God, and will he live again once he dies. Out of a whirlwind, represented by the radiating circles behind him, God comes to respond to Job’s questions.
