job's lineage places him before the flood. which would be waaaaaay before the exodus. job is the OLDEST story of the BIBLE. i will try to find documentation to back this up. methuselah died just before the flood and job died before methuselah.
the chronological BIBLE gives the dates for the job story.
i'll start searching for this right after i finish with documentation on lucifer/satan/king of tyre in the other thread.
Job was Jobab ('father Job') in the genealogies. He was NOT before the flood! He was a Hebrew, ie descent from Eber/Heber. There are many references that place Job after the flood. For example the 'land of Uz'. Uz was like his great uncle. The land of Ophir is also mentions. Ophir is his elder brother. His friend Eliphaz was Essau's eldest son. It specifically mentions Eliphaz of Teman. Teman was the city of Eliphaz's eldest son. He was a duke of Edom.
22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
23 And the children of Aram;
Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
25 And unto
Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brothers name was Joktan.
26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
29 And
Ophir, and Havilah, and
Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.
Ge 36:15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of
Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; duke
Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz,
Job 2:11 Now when Jobs three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place;
Eliphaz the Temanite (Eliphaz from Teman)
It was common practice to name a city after your firstborn son and live with him because the eldest inherited the double portion and maintained his parents in their old age. Eliphaz was living in the city of Teman, ie a Teminite (from Teman) but Teman was his eldest son's name. Teman is in Edom the land of Esau.
There is NO WAY Job is pre-flood! It actually mentions the flood in Job! The doctrine that Eliphaz is telling Job is straight out of Babylonian sun god worship. Eliphaz had a pagan Canaanite mother and his doctrine is pagan but he is also a Hebrew as well as being descent from Abraham.
Where do you get the idea that Job is pre-flood? Job also had the life span of an individual that lived not too many generations down from the flood. He lived another 170 years after his restoration. Jobab was of the 5th generation after the flood when the lifespans were like 400+ years.
Yah enticed HaSatan to focused on Job and sending plagues against him while Yah was delivering the children of Israel out of bondage in Egypt. Some of them were actually descendants of Job. Two of the sons of Jacob married earlier daughters of Jobab including the wife of Levi, the grandmother of Moses.
There are a multitude of pagan references given by Job's friends. The paganism referenced is the Canaanite paganism that was taken from Babel.
