<p>There is a difference in interpretation, here. On the one hand, Alter suggests that Job&rsquo;s wife is being sardonic here, saying, &ldquo;Job&rsquo;s wife assumes either that cursing God will immediately lead to Job&rsquo;s death, which might be just as well, or that, given his ghastly state, he will soon die anyway&rdquo; \parencite[469]{alter}.
