["Harold R. Holmyard III" <hholmyard AT ont.com>]

Dear George,

I've been studying Job for quite a number of years, and it has always 
been my understanding that scholars did not know the date of its 
composition. There were various theories.

                                Yours,
                                Harold Holmyard
