THE divisions of chapters of the Book of Job, in the
common version of the Bible, are entirely arbitrary and
unnatural. They occur in the middle of the speeches of
Job, Eliphaz, Elihu, and the Almighty. I have discarded
this improper sacrifice of uninterrupted connection and
sense to short breaks and pauses, and have adopted the
more simple and regular divisions of the speeches of the
various speakers into separate chapters.
