Exploring the problem of evil, this book examines how ancient Greek and Latin authors, both pagan and Christian, approached this philosophical dilemma. It spans from the classical and Hellenistic eras through the Roman period, dedicating significant attention to Christianity, including Manichaeism. The author argues that the problem of evil is uniquely acute for Christians due to their belief in a personal God. Additionally, it highlights parallels between early Christian thought and Greek philosophies, particularly Platonism, in addressing the existence of evil.
