Beskrivelse
The concept of justice is a fundamental tenet of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, exerting a profound influence on their respective theological, ethical, and social perspectives. The pursuit of a just world is a central concern of these religions, with a particular emphasis on human responsibility, compassion, and mercy. This book presents a comprehensive overview of the understanding of justice in each one of the three religions, elucidating the similarities and differences between them. Each chapter provides perspectives on justice in the respective holy scriptures, as well as key classical and traditional views on the topics of divine-human relations and social and political justice issues. Additionally, modern interpretations are presented, including the tension between freedom and religious duties and responsibilities of individuals and among societies. Given the paucity of literature on this topic, this book offers a rare and essential contribution to understanding justice in the context of the monotheistic faiths.
