Creatio ex nihilo is a foundational doctrine in the Abrahamic
faiths. It states that God created the world freely out of nothing
- from no pre-existent matter, space or time. This teaching is
central to classical accounts of divine action, free will, grace,
theodicy, religious language, intercessory prayer and questions of
divine temporality and, as such, the foundation of a scriptural God
but also the transcendent Creator of all that is. This edited
collection explores how we might now recover a place for this
doctrine, and, with it, a consistent defence of the God of Abraham
in philosophical, scientific and theological terms. The
contributions span the religious traditions of Judaism,
Christianity and Islam, and cover a wide range of sources,
including historical, philosophical, scientific and theological. As
such, the book develops these perspectives to reveal the relevance
of this idea within the modern world.
