ABSTRACT
Just how radical the myth embedded in Jung’s psychology is in both its appreciation and supersession of monotheistic mythology in any of its variants becomes evident in his work on Job. If this work is read in the religious language in which it is cast it would contend that an unconscious God necessarily creates human consciousness as the only agency that can perceive divinity’s unresolved eternal conflict and contribute to its resolution in time, finitude and history at the insistence of divinity itself.
