The study illustrates the conversation between the biblical Book of Job and its history of effects (Wirkungsgeschichte) in the early Jewish documents – the Greek Septuagint version and the Testament of Job. The work is focused on the women in the Book of Job, his wife and three daughters. Hermeneutical insight into their importance is gained by the methodological approach which concentrates on the biblical effects (Wirkungskritik). According to the author’s conviction the comprehension of the text is based on cognitive as well as on emotional effects. This may possibly be discovered from the later works.
