The Nature and Problem of Moral Evil: A Review and Analysis Toward Constructing a Biblical Theodicy

Timothy Gordon

This monograph defines the nature and problem of moral evil from a philosophical perspective as presented by several notable philosophers of religion and theologians. Some personal examples of tragedy are shared. Four main categories of the deductive, inductive, intellectual, and emotional problem of evil were defined with several additional subcategories being noted.The main chapters analyze the classical arguments from evil by Augustine and Leibniz. The problem of evil in recent scholarship looks at the writings of several theistic and atheistic philosophers of religion from the contemporary period of the twentieth century up the present. A modest cross-section of some efforts toward constructing a biblical theodicy was provided by several scholars from a philosophical, biblical, theological, and practical perspective.The conclusion notes the challenge and difficulty of constructing a Christian theodicy by presenting a multi-faceted approach to the problem of evil.
