Job lived around the time of Abraham. The book of Job is considered one of the oldest books of the Tenach. Job went through much testing so he might have a better understanding of who G-d is. One thing Job was certain of , no matter how bad things got and if he died that Job would see G-d with his own eyes. In other words Job knew of the resurrection from the dead.
"For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth; And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see G-d: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me." Job 19:25-27
Job had no doubt of the Redeemer raising him from the dead even if his body was eaten up of worms. G-d would raise him up.
