In 'Particular Providence', William Robert Gordon offers a fresh perspective on the story of Joseph in the Bible, arguing that it illustrates the role of divine providence in human affairs. Drawing on historical and philosophical sources, Gordon explores the idea of 'particular providence' and its significance for understanding the workings of God in the world. With clarity and insight, he shows how the story of Joseph remains relevant to contemporary debates about the nature of God and the problem of evil.
