The System: A Poem. With Notes. In Five Books. By The Rev. Joseph Wise is a long theological verse work in which Wise develops a comprehensive argument on the problem of evil, the role of free will and fate, and the structure of a providential system designed for probation and the glory of God. Across Book I, Wise debates whether creation must include pain and sin, the credibility of determinism, and how moral and natural evils serve a higher end. He defends a system where God freely ordains a framework that includes trial, virtue, and punishment in a gradual process that reveals divine attributes—justice, mercy, wisdom, and grace. The accompanying notes (as indicated in the title) cite patristic authorities and scriptural references to support the claims. The poem is primarily didactic and philosophical, aiming to harmonize theology, ethics, and metaphysics within a probative framework.
