With rich theological language that will appeal to a broad
audience, this beautifully written book offers a hopeful
interpretation of the problem of evil that plagues our time. In God
without the Idea of Evil, well-known French Catholic theologian
Jean-Miguel Garrigues, O.P., seeks to rise above the apparent
contradiction of faith and the existence of evil, suffering, and
death. Originally published in France as Dieu sans idée du mal in
1982, a revised second edition came out in 1990, and in 2016 the
book was released again with a foreword by Cardinal Christoph
Schönborn, which serves as the basis for the present translation.
At its heart, this book contemplates the mystery of our election by
God, which is expressed in the very fact of our existence.
Garrigues addresses compelling theological topics—the concept of
moral evil, the “redemptive charity” of Christ, the
“journey” of human liberty, and the process of “nature
becoming history”—with precise, poetically charged language
that remains accessible. Garrigues makes a passionate defense of
the innocence of God in the face of moral evil. By enveloping us in
his look, as Cardinal Schönborn writes in the foreword, “God
encounters us in the very gift of being that he bestows upon us,
and his eyes do not see our sin.” The book invites us to
rediscover in the eyes of Jesus the eternal, continually renewed
charm of the divine gaze. We are illumined and inspired by a vision
of God who “does not see us through the evil in us,” but rather
loves us from the infinite depths of his creative charity.
