The Joy of Memorizing Job in Hebrew - with Ellie Wiener

The other day I ran across a fascinating article written by a Cambridge PhD student who memorized the entire book of Job in Hebrew as part of her dissertation research. The article was entitled Learning to love: The surprising joy of memorising Job, and after reading it I knew I wanted to learn more about the process and the insights she gleaned from the experience. So I reached out to her and she kindly agreed to grace us with a nerdy chat on Job.

Ellie Wiener particularly takes joy in studying and communicating how the theological themes and imagery of the Old Testament create the context in which the gospel proclaimed in Jesus Christ is both intelligible and breathtakingly beautiful.
