Beschreibung
Intermediate Diploma Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: A, , course: Theology, language: English, abstract: This study explores the problem of evil within the context of the Book of Genesis, employing a biblical-theological approach. The problem of evil has long perplexed philosophers and theologians, questioning how the existence of evil can coexist with an all-powerful and benevolent God. By focusing on the Book of Genesis, which provides the foundational narrative of creation and the fall of humanity, this research seeks to understand the biblical perspective on this enduring theological dilemma. Through a meticulous examination of key passages and themes in Genesis, the study aims to uncover insights into the nature and origin of evil, as well as God's response to it. It delves into the portrayal of human freedom, the consequences of disobedience, and the consequences of sin on the human condition and the wider creation. Additionally, the research investigates the role of divine justice, mercy, and redemption in addressing the problem of evil. By adopting a biblical-theological approach, this study offers a nuanced understanding of the problem of evil within the context of the Book of Genesis, shedding light on the complex relationship between God, humanity, and the existence of evil.
