==Apocrypha categorisation== At the end of the 5th century, the ''Testament of Job'' was relegated to the [[apocrypha]] by the [[Decretum Gelasianum|Gelasian Decree]], concerning canonical and noncanonical books. Subsequently, the ''Testament of Job'' was ignored by Roman Catholic writers until it was published in 1833 in the series edited by [[Angelo Mai]] (''Scriptorum Veterum Nova Collectio'' Vol. vii, pp. 180β191). Mai's manuscript had a double title: ''Testament of Job the Blameless, the Conqueror in Many Contests, the Sainted'' (which seems to be the older title) and ''The Book of Job Called [[Jobab ben Zerah|Jobab]], and His Life, and the Transcript of His Testament''.
