<p>In Reclaiming Motherhood: An African Woman's Reading of Birthing Imagery in the Book of Job, Dr. Tororeiy argues that most Joban scholarship places Job at the center of conversation with a focus on the theme of theodicy and patriarchy. She calls for an alternative reading that focuses on birthing imagery and places Job's wife and the feminine side of God at the center of conversations. A focus on birthing imagery brings out the double-sided meaning of the message of Job's book, which is that the cycle of life brings both joy and sadness. Rather than question these realities, we ought to explore ways to navigate them. This book is useful to scholars of the Hebrew Bible, Peace Studies, Women Studies, Political Scientists, theologians dealing with the problem of theodicy, and church practitioners who want to understand the problem of evil and suffering in the world today.</p>
