The 23rd Jewish-Christian Seminar
Jewish and Christian Understandings of
Suffering:
Studies in the Book of Job
Tuesday, April 8, 2008, 3:30 - 8:00 p.m.
Luther Seminary, Northwestern Hall
Suffering seems to be part of the human condition. Those whose
suffering seems undeserved cause us to question the existence of any
divine presence or mercy in this world. Is undeserved suffering
necessary? Is it of any value?
Kathryn Schifferdecker and Barry Cytron will explore the problem
of undeserved suffering with attention to Jewish and Christian
interpretations of the book of Job. After the presentations there
will be a time for group discussion around a lovely kosher meal and
a time for participants to present their questions to Kathryn and
Barry.
