This drama lays bare the most vexing questions confronting the moral imagination.</em></p><p>Set in a Ukranian village in the year 1649, this haunting play takes place in the aftermath of a pogrom. Only two Jews, Berish the innkeeper and his daughter Hannah, have survived the brutal Cossack raids. When three itinerant actors arrive in town to perform a Purim play, Berish demands that they stage a mock trial of God instead, indicting Him for His silence in the face of evil. Berish, a latter-day Job, is ready to take on the role of prosecutor. But who will defend God? A mysterious stranger named Sam, who seems oddly familiar to everyone present, shows up just in time to volunteer.</p><p>The idea for this play came from an event that Elie Wiesel witnessed as a boy in Auschwitz: Three rabbisall erudite and pious mendecided one evening to indict God for allowing His children to be massacred. I remember: I was there, and I felt like crying. But there nobody cried.</p><p>Inspired and challenged by this play, Christian theologians Robert McAfee Brown and Matthew Fox, in a new Introduction and Afterword, join Elie Wiesel in the search for faith in a world where God is silent.</p>...2448133The Trial of God230299https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-trial-of-god-9780307833815/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2146452/497d869a-5c14-47a9-8c6d-cc6678572351.jpg?v=638383572788270000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139780307833815_W3siaWQiOiI0NmEzYTYyYi0yMjA4LTQ1NzktYmIyYy1kYWFlZDQyOWE1ZWIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjMwMCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjY5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjIzMSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780307833815_<p><strong><em>The Trial of God (as it was held on February 25, 1649, in Shamgorod)</em><br />A Play by Elie Wiesel<br />Translated by Marion Wiesel<br />Introduction by Robert McAfee Brown<br />Afterword by Matthew Fox</strong></p><p><em>Where is God when innocent human beings suffer?
