Job, but it depends on which type of 'oldest' is meant. Job was probably the oldest book written, but Genesis is the oldest chronologically, as in content. Job was probably born in 2900BC and lived for 248 years ie to 2648 BC [as dated by B. Setterfield], while Genesis was written by Moses (1486BC-1406BC : as dated by Ussher) and opens with the Creation of the Earth in 4004BC (Ussher).
