[July 2006 journal entry]
Within the ‘religious’ T/O paradigm, the epilogue is heard to say, “There. I knew God would make everything work out in the end.” Instead, I hear the epilogue to say, “It all works out in the end. It’s like nothing bad ever happened to Job! Yeah, right.” I think a sarcastic interpretation should be carried over to the epilogue from the end of the whirlwind encounter.
