Speech and Theology: Language and the Logic of Incarnation

---

God is Infinite, but language finite; thus speech would seem to condemn him to finitude. In speaking of God, would the theologian violate divine transcendence by reducing God to immanence, or choose, rather, to remain silent? At stake in this argument is a core problem of the conditions of divine revelation. How, in terms of language and the limitations of human understanding, can transcendence ever be made known? Does its very appearance not undermine its transcendence, its condition of unknowability? Speech and Theology: Language and the Logic of Incarnation posits that the paradigm for the encounter between the material and the divine, or the immanent and transcendent, is found in the Incarnation: God’s voluntary self-immersion in the human world as an expression of his love for his creation.
