Book of Job

"The Book of Job...is a book found in the Ketuvim ('Writings') section of the Hebrew Bible and the first of the Poetic Books in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible... Job is tested through extreme suffering, including the loss of his wealth, children, and health, yet he maintains his piety while challenging the justice of God." [Book of Job, Wikipedia]

A letter from Joseph Curwen to Simon Orne, ca. 1750, cited Job 14:14: "If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come." [HPL Case (online text)] Curwen cited the passage while discussing a spell to ensure that one of your descendants shall resurrect you from your Essential Saltes.
