Comments (Meaning / History Only)

The English name came as many from a mistake. The Bible was first printed in Germany. When it was translated into English the name remained in the german form. So Job Should have been translated Iob since J is pronounced as I in german.
Ps: usually the simplest solution is the correct one;
Job was not mistreated by God, rather God was confident that Job would not turn on Him, no matter the circumstances. As a result, when Satan asked to hurt Job, God allowed it, but didn't cause it.
