Who better to interpret the version of the Bible read in Shakespeare's day than four Shakespearean actors?!
The familiar chronicles of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John sparkle with new light.
Timely and important, the four acclaimed narrators boldly showcase the historic text making the powerful King James Version of the Gospels truly accessible to the modern ear.
Read by award-winning narrator Alison Larkin, James Warwick (star of the Partners in Crime TV series on Masterpiece Theater), plus the critically-acclaimed Shakespearean duo Tina Packer and Nigel Gore called "Marvelous!" by The New York Times.
Accusation is the unperceived catalyst for this dramatic narrative; Job is framed by the accusation that his self-invested allegiance to God will evaporate if he is exposed to adversity. Job is unaware that this wager against his integrity has taken place. The drama that ensues on an epic scale resonates with universal experiences of human suffering—from Job's searching questions, to the grating interventions of Job's friends, and the sense that human misfortune can seem contingent on the whim of unseen powers.
The Book of Job is found in the writings of the Hebrew Bible and is the first book of poetry in the Old Testament. This audiobook is performed by Sarah Bacaller and Denis Daly, and includes a foreword written by Dr. Stephen Curkpatrick.
