Footnotes

  1. Habakkuk 1:1 Habakkuk encounters the great problem of evil: among peoples and individuals, the strong always oppress the weak, unless God intervenes. The prophets explain the situation by seeing oppressors as the instruments of God’s anger who punish the sin of the people. Like Job, Habakkuk rejects such an explanation as overly simplistic.
