Opis

Faced with the fascinating world in which we live, we are irresistibly impelled to reflect on one of humanity's fundamental questions: the origin of the universe and of life. Humanity has always sought answers to this fundamental question, eventually realizing that all the answers that do not reach God always seem too short. Throughout history we find various attempts to respond to this human restlessness. The people of Israel were not indifferent to this problematic, and in their culture and literature we find a bold and original approach to this question. These narratives entered in "crisis" with other types of approaches, namely with the scientific theories about the beginnings of the universe, being well known the Big Bang theory or Charles Darwin's theory of evolution of the species. But science does not bring together the totality of answers to human questioning. In its research scope it tries to answer how and when the universe and life arose, but it is not within its scope to answer questions such as: Why did it arise? Why does the world exist and nothing exist? Who am I? Why me and not another, in this place in history and in the world?
