France: 'Job Speaks with His Friends (Book of Job 2:1-13)'. Lithograph by Gustave Doré (6 January 1832 - 23 January 1883), 1866. Job is the central character of the Book of Job in the Hebrew Bible. Job is also recognised as a prophet of God in the Qur'an. The Book of Job begins with an introduction to Job's character. He is described as a blessed man who lives righteously. God's praise of Job prompts Satan to challenge Job's integrity and suggesting that Job serves God simply because he protects him. God removes Job's protection, allowing Satan to take his wealth, his children and his health
