He landed near the present archeological site of Gobekli Tepe. This site may be as much as 14,000 years old and is only a few miles from the ancient town of Urfa which claims to be Abraham’s birthplace. Agriculture was also born in t...

While a cursory reading of the text seems to relay a simple story of a righteous man whose love for God was tested through life's most difficult of challenges and rewarded for his faith through those trials, a closer reading of Job presents something far more complex and challenging. The majority of the text is a work of poetry that authors and artists through the centuries have recognized as being one of--if not th...
