But that can't be right, for the reason I give in the article: the author includes the real answer by talking about God's bet with Satan. Why didn't Yahweh tell Job about that bet? Why did he puff himself up and say the answer is unfathomable, when the Book of Job tells the reader the reason for Job's suffering? Was Yahweh ashamed of himself? There's all kinds of subversive stuff going on in that text, as there is in Ecclesiastes too.
