This study examines the confessions of Jeremiah and the complaints of Job. The purpose is to better understand Job's struggles between faith and suffering. Suffering is an integral element of both Jeremiah's and Job's missions. Furthermore, their suffering reveals ongoing struggles in the real world and the need for God's ultimate deliverance. The primary method of this study is comparison and contrast. Careful exegesis of selected texts in Jeremiah (11:8-12:6; 15:10-21; 17:14-18; 18:18-23; 20:7-18) and Job (3:3-26; 6:8-20; 9:13-24; 13:17-28; 16:18-22; 19:13-27) is foundational. The study employs an eclectic approach to surface important imagery and themes. Three major parallels between Jeremiah's confessions and Job's complaints are examined: the curse on the day of birth, lawsuits with God, and their fluctuating relationships with God. These have been cited by some to support Jeremiah's precedence over Job. But our analysis shows that the author of Job does not follow the development or the salient features of the themes in the book of Jeremiah. Instead, the book of Job has a unique way of using these themes to portray Job's struggles with suffering. The similarities between the confessions of Jeremiah and the complaints of Job suggest that Job, like Jeremiah, struggles with his identity as a suffering servant and complains about it. An overview of the rest of the book of Job supports this observation. The friends presume that Job is wicked and should repent of his wrongdoing, but in his speeches, Job protests their judgments, and he hopes for vindication. Job's harsh language toward God is congruent with his identity as a suffering servant. Elihu's speech and the divine speech affirm Job's identity as a suffering servant, which the narrative frame makes explicit.
