Jung gives Job an answer

In Job, God and the Devil make a kind of bet. Will Job continue to follow/serve/be loyal to God if everything he’s been blessed with is taken from him? What does this say of God? And of man? What is required in the pysche from/of God in light of this? The Christ. God becomes man. The Holy Spirit eternally becoming the same in all men (and women). And what in the world does all of this mean?

I think a person could understand the whole of the bible, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, their own culture, their own psychic tension even if they care nothing for these “reglions” by reading this little book than any other. And of Jung and what I beleive is likely to be his lasting influence on humanity for aeons.

Is it a thing somewhere, a person, a God-man, man-God, man, woman, masculine, femining, nothing, everything? Having been raised in Christian churches who had a necessary respect for Jewish theology, this was while not an easy read certainly largely understandable for me. I think it might be more difficult for someone without but perhaps not. Could just be that’s the lens I looked through most. Perhaps if you were primarily exposed to the same simply by immersion in Western geographies, anyone could follow the logic and possess (or have soaked up) the background required for as much.
