Should the Holocaust Force Us to Rethink Our View of God and Evil?

Should the Holocaust Force Us to Rethink Our View of God and Evil?

  • Technical
  • John J. Johnson

This article reflects on the impact the Holocaust has had on Jewish-Christian relations. The problem of evil is recognized as an age-old dilemma for biblical theists; it does not take on special meaning in light of the Holocaust. The same issues as are found in the book of Job. The proper response is not a radical rethinking of Christian theology but a humble, biblical acceptance of the limits of human understanding when faced with apparently pointless suffering.
