dc.description.abstractThroughout the centuries many people have thought and written all kinds of reflections on the problem of evil and therefore on suffering. There has also been a particular attention given to the suffering of the innocent The Jewish wisdom also tackled the problem. My aim in this paper is far from suggesting concrete solutions to eradicate the problem of evil. It is neither an explanation on why the innocent suffer nor a remedy to all evils in the world. I am also part of this struggle. I am an actor not a spectator. The main purpose of my reflection is to help people cope with suffering. My goal is to show them that despite all the situations they go through, God is still at their side like a loving mother suffering with them. It is to help each one of us find hope and keep the Faith in the same ever loving God. We can lose everything, except hope. As we shall see, suffering has both a disciplinary, didactic and redemptive value in human existence. Whoever suffers and assumes his situation will always find wisdom and life at the end of it. My reflection will be based on three characters: Job, the Gurunsi(my people) and Christ. My main tool for the study of Job will be the New Jerusalem Bible except when indicated otherwise.en_US
