Answer to Job
Book • 1954
Carl Jung's "Answer to Job" reinterprets the biblical Book of Job through the lens of analytical psychology.
Jung challenges the traditional Christian interpretation, suggesting that God's suffering is not a mysterious plan but a consequence of God's own unconsciousness.
The book explores the concept of God's 'shadow self' and the importance of confronting inner darkness for spiritual growth.
Jung's analysis delves into the dynamics between the conscious and unconscious, highlighting the need for self-reflection and integration.
Ultimately, "Answer to Job" offers a profound exploration of faith, suffering, and the human condition.
