Ecclesiastes and Job: Together at Last – Dr. Tim Saleska

from Tangible: Theology Learned and Lived · host Concordia Seminary, St. Louis

Dr. Tim Saleska, Old Testament scholar and professor of exegetical theology, explores the book of Ecclesiastes. He presents the idea that Job and Ecclesiastes are better understood in light of each other. "Job asks for an answer to suffering. Ecclesiastes puts us on the edge of meaninglessness," said Saleska. "They inform each other, both deal with a God who doesn't seem to care very much about human beings. What do you do with a God like that?" Join us in this frank discussion about human suffering, meaninglessness, and the one who restores all things.
