Description
Monotheism and Divine Aggression investigates the complex theological and historical connections between monotheistic religions and concepts of divine violence. Collin Cornell analyzes how monotheistic traditions—including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—understand and justify God’s aggressive actions as depicted in sacred texts and theological frameworks.
The work explores foundational questions about divine nature, morality, and power within monotheistic systems. Cornell examines biblical narratives, theological interpretations, and philosophical arguments that address why an all-powerful, all-knowing God would employ violence or permit suffering. This element provides scholars and students of religious studies with critical perspectives on a contentious topic that shapes contemporary religious discourse and interfaith dialogue.
