Keywords: creation; the Lord/God and creation; deuterocanonical literature and creation; Hellenism and creation
Summary/Abstract: The study examines the topic of creation in the deutero-canonical literature: Who is the Creator? What is creation? How does the Creator act? What is the purpose of creation? What things are created? What do we learn about the creation of human being? The great variety of topics shows that the authors of deuterocanonical writings deal with more elements and aspects than the authors of the protocanonical literature. The reason is in the changed situation, as Hellenism is an almost constant challenge.
