| Abstract: | It is argued that with Emmanuel Levinas, the theodicy project attempting to reconcile a benevolent and just God with the existence of evil reached its conclusion. Scriptures, philosophers and theologians have long addressed the problem, but a comprehensive theodicy in the modern sense does not emerge before Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz coined the term in 1710.
