Due modelli di formazione nell’Antico Testamento

History in the Pentateuch and creation in the Book of Job are the two sources of life and human formation towards maturity of faith in the OT up to the NT. The message of Moses and of Job is that God is the Creator and Father, the God of life, who has done and always does good things for all his creatures, both by sending them joy and suffering. Also God employs persons as human guides and intercessors: Moses in the Pentateuch and the young Elihu in the book of Job. Every believer is invited to accept the persons that God sends in his life and also to be ready to make himself a guide and intercessor for his brothers and sisters, when God calls him.
