Publisher's Synopsis
The transcript of Ch. F. Schnurrer's lecture on Job is an excellent example of the philological commentary and the exegetics of Protestant theology at the end of the 18th century. It is of great significance for the history of science and the history of theology. Schnurrer (1742-1822) was Ephorus (head) of the Tubinger Stift (house of studies for students of Protestant theology), an eminent specialist in Middle Eastern and oriental studies and the outstanding representative of a modern, Spinoza-oriented exegetics.
