Know about the book -
Provocation and Punishment is written by Samantha Joo and published by Walter de Gruyter. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3110189941 (ISBN 10) and 9783110189940 (ISBN 13).
This book examines the problem of theodicy arising from the fall of Jerusalem (587 B.C.E.) in the book of Jeremiah. It explores the ways in which the authors of the book of Jeremiah tried to explain away their God's responsibility while clinging to the idea of divine mastery over human affairs. In order to trace the development of a particular book's understanding of God's role in meting out punishments, this book analyzes all the passages containing the word pivotal, הכעיס ("to provoke to anger") in Deuteronomistic History and the book of Jeremiah.
