Abstract
In this article the author bears in mind the war and post-war situation in Croatia. He suggests brief answer to the question on the justification of war. In a reveiw of the history of the biblical people, he draws attention to war sufferings on two occasions: on the exile and on the tyranny of Antioch IV Epiphanes, in which four men of the Word of God were involved - the prophets Ezechiel, Jeremiah, Deuteroisaiah, and Daniel. From the point of view of those prophets and their actions during the wartime sufferings of their people, the author proposes some directions for the acting of men of the Word of God in the present sufferings of our country.
