A poor Job is a person of inexhaustible patience; in allusion to a legendary character in the Bible whose history is poetically treated in the Book of Job. He is said to have been a patriarch who lived near the A rabian desert. He was repeatedly ruined, deprived of all his possessions, bereaved of his children and smitten with leprosy. His wife advised him to curse everything and die. His friends gave him but critical, philosophical advice. For a time he gave way to despair; finally, however, by force of character he rose superior to circumstances, and regained health, wealth and honour.
