Abstract:
Discusses trends in the Jewish theological response to the Holocaust, especially Richard Rubenstein's "death of God" theory, and Emil Fackenheim's and Elie Wiesel's ideas on the uniqueness and centrality of the Holocaust in contemporary Jewish spiritual life. Referring to the moral problem of evil posed by the Holocaust, states that for Jews it implies a categorical distinction between Nazi torturers and their victims, and an absolute opposition to evil.
