Chas Bayfield

In one of the most extraordinary gambits in the Bible, and possibly in the whole of literature, God and the Devil have a wager over the virtue of one man, a farmer named Job.

Now synonymous with suffering, Job endures both terrible harships and the judgemental pontification of some of his closest friends.

This is where the history section of the Bible ends and the poetry begins and the Devil is about to approach God with a proposal.
