The Book of Job questions the possibility of theodicy. The existence of evil and suffering can be justified neither from the perspective of human guilt, nor from its role for the future realizations of the good. Only in the act of faith and through this act - by trusting the Creator - one can recognize that in the world's sufferings, there is a positive, creative meaning, though this meaning is sometimes obscured from human beings and in principle inaccessible to reason.
