Light Unapproachable

- Divine Incomprehensibility and the Task of Theology

Bag om Light Unapproachable

How can finite creatures know an infinite God? How does limited knowledge impact what we can say of God? Retrieving important insight from Scripture and key patristic, medieval, early modern, and modern theologians, Ronni Kurtz presents a rich analysis of the doctrine of divine incomprehensibility. Our theological language, says Kurtz, cannot capture the full mystery of God. However, our inability to see God in his totality should not lead us to despair. Through God's gracious accommodation, we can learn to speak of God faithfully, truthfully, and prayerfully. Kurtz's retrieval of the tradition to unpack divine accommodation reminds us that theologians in all ages have wrestled with what we can and cannot say of God.
