Description: "This book serves to correct the now accepted understanding of Irenaeus's theodicy. This assumption of Hick's theodicy as legitimately "Irenaean" remains due the gulf between Irenaean scholarship and discussion of the problem of evil. The present work offers a bridge between the two to allow for the continued discussion of both theologian's distinct views"--
