Weisheit im Widerspruch : Studien Zu Den Elihu-reden in Ljob 32-37

This study synthesizes academic research on the monologues of Elihu in Job: 32-27, and presents a literary critique that views the complex as a theological compendium ranging from poetical dialogue to divine speech. The genre analysis of the introductory chapter, which is regarded at many points as an ironization of Elihu and a deconstruction of his overall argumentation, allows us to recognize the theological status of the monologues.
