Who comes before Job in the old testament?

I am not sure what you are looking for whether you are asking the date for Job or where its position in the Bible. The second one is easier. Its position will very depending on whether you use the Hebrew order or the English order. In the Hebrew Bible it comes after the Book of Psalms. In the English Bible it comes after the book of Esther. This however does not change the contents of what it says. The Hebrew bible tends to be more chronologically put together. If you are asking about the date this is harder to know. We really do not know when Job lived or who wrote the book. As far as I know there is no conclusive evidence of when this book was written. There are many idea which are suggested bases on what the author says or does not say. Based on the language used in Job some people say it is the oldest book in the Bible which would put it at least as old as Moses. Others say is could have been written during the 7-10th century BC. I could write several pages on this but that is not the point of this site. If either case the date it is written does not change the fact that it is inspired by God and that it should be in the Bible.
