Benjamin is way better because in my Genesis, he was only ever killed out of battle or with Martyr. Once he died I would just recur him with Judah or Asher. I don't see how Job is winning.

Job is awesome because of the cards that go with him: Dust and Ashes and Job's Faith.

Blue Genesis has what, one battle winner that can be played on Benjamin? (Jacob Buries the Foreign Gods). He can also use Obedience of Noah, but you'll still have to in most cases play another enhancement to be winning. Reuben's Torn Clothes hasn't been the same since Golgotha. And he's only good in a Genesis deck.

Job can't be Martyred, Writted, Charms'ed, Gone into Captivity, Plotted, Dungeoned, or affected at all by 70-80% of the evil battle winners out there. Even when someone does manage to get rid of him, he'll usually come back the very next turn. And I pity the fool who dares to give Job initiative, unless they're prepared to face a 20/12 Hero with no EC special abilities and no evil cards in hand.
