This book gathers research in the area of theology and justice, elaborating some biblical-systematic notes on the theme. In the first part, the book of Job deals with the challenge of true religion, which combines faith and trust in God, with a strong critique of the theology of retribution. Then, from the book of the prophet Amos, a critique is undertaken against social injustice, with special focus on the exploitation of the poor. Finally, it approaches, from Christology, the person of Jesus Christ as revelation of the justice and compassion of God, emphasizing the inseparability between justice and peace in order to bring out the theme of the justice of God in relation to the unjust victims of history, culminating with a reflection on Jesus Christ as revelation of the justice of God: in Jesus God's compassion for the unjust is revealed.
