St. John of the Cross: Songs in the Night
... " To the mad, this is the " dark night of truth, " of " no truth to Truth " (Caputo, 1993: 233, 238). Foucault's " dark night of truth, " is similar to the mystical idea of the " dark night of the soul, " found within St. John of the Cross's The Dark Night of the Soul (Thompson, 2003).

From the perspective of parents who have lost children in labor and delivery rooms due to miscarriages, stillbirths, or who were born too early, the author argues that health care personnel including administrators, nurses, and doctors must be held accountable to the ethical responsibilities of caring for the parents of the children who have died.

The book of Lamentations raises many theological problems, especially relating to divine responsibility for human suffering, but one of its most overtly theological discussions occurs in Lam 3:34–9 and 58–9. In a commentary that seeks to bridge the gap between biblical scholarship and Christian systematic theology, Robin Parry develops his own Christian typological reading of this chapter of Lamentations, building on patristic interpretation but sensitive to issues relating to Christian supersessionism. While acknowledging that the human figure in Lamentations 3 is not presented as a savior who dies to rescue an oppressed people, Parry argues that the connection between the man's suffering and the suffering of Jerusalem is much like the link between Jesus’ death and the destruction of the holy city; in each case the man embodies in his own life-story the divine judgment.
