The T&T Clark Handbook of Suffering and the Problem of Evil
provides an extensive exploration of the theology of theodicy,
asking questions such as should all instances of suffering
necessarily be understood as evil? Why would an omnipotent and
benevolent God allow or perpetrate evil? Is God unable or unwilling
to reduce human and non-human suffering on Earth? Does humanity
have the capacity to exercise a moral evaluation of God’s motives
and intentions? Conventional disciplinary boundaries have tended to
separate theological approaches to these questions from
philosophical ones. This volume aims to overcome these boundaries
by including biblical (Part I), historical (Part II), doctrinal
(Part III), philosophical (Part IV), and pastoral, interreligious
perspectives and alternative intersections (Part V) on theodicy.
Authors include thinkers from analytic and continental traditions,
multiple Christian denominations and other religions, and both
established and younger scholars, providing a full variety of
approaches. What unites the essays is an attempt to answer these
questions from the perspective of biblical testimony, historical
scholarship, modern theological and philosophical thinking about
the concept of God, non-Christian religions, science and the arts.
The result is a combination of in-depth analysis and breadth of
scope, making this a benchmark work for further studies in the
theology of suffering and evil.
