Job, Jonah, and the unconscious : a psychological interpretation of evil and spiritual growth in the Old Testament

1 Introduction. 2 Jonah and the unconscious. 3 Job. 4 Evil in the Old Testament. 5 Answer to Jung

'Jonah and Job, two of the most fascinating books in the Old Testament, are skillfully reinterpreted in this ground-breaking work....Corey uses the principles of modern depth psychology to address one of humanity's most fundamental concerns--the nature of evil--through a unique synthesis that will satisfy traditional theologians and hard-core skeptics alike. By applying the tenets of Jungian analysis to our Biblical heritgage, Corey develops a perspeective that is simultaneously orthodox and modern, Christian and pluralistic; the unlucky Job and hapless Jonah are given a modern psychological context without being stripped of their religious and moral significance.'
