The suffering that appears in the book of Job may be considered in various forms. This dissertation analyses the question of the land as an axis from which Job s questioners debate. It does not treat of a simple debate among scholars but a situation of social violence, where the principal victims are the poor. These, not having the means to pay the taxes demanded by the imperial system of government, see their lands and houses invaded and the fences of their properties changed, their animals stolen and their lives reduced to slavery. The land is being violated, injustice is visible. The courts of justice are closed off to the cries of the victims. Contemplating the reality of all this, Job lifts his voice in a cry of protest. Three friends arrive to console him, but do no t enter deeply into the question which is raised. Eliphaz and his companions, have a different point of view to that of Job. The dissertation is organized into three chapters. The first, presents a general vision of the book of Job with the necessary observations, in view of the study in hand, focalizing the dialogue of Eliphaz and the question of land in the bible and in the period of the Persian empire. The second chapter is dedicated to an exegetical examination of Chapter 15. The division into three parts follows the argument of Eliphaz, the condemnation of Job s discourse, the teaching in relation to the land, and the condemnation of the impious. The last chapter amplifies the vision into the question of the land in the whole book of Job and looks to id entify each one of the personalities, the foreigners, the impious, Job s questioners, the poor, and Job himself. It is important to know the place which each one occupies in society and who these people represent in the question of the land.(AU)
