In this very powerful book, David Blumenthal maintains that having
faith in a post-holocaust world means admitting that while God is
often loving and kind, fair and merciful. God is also capable of
acts so unjust they can only be described as abusive. Grounding his
argument in the scriptures and in the experience of holocaust
survivors and of survivors of child abuse. Blumenthal grapples with
how to face a God who works "wondrously through us" and who has
worked "aw(e)fully against us." Delving into Jewish literary and
theological traditions, the author articulates a theology of
protest which accepts God as God is, yet defends the innocence of
those who are utterly victimized.
