Opis

The classical understanding of creation out of §nothing has traditionally held that God's creation §of the universe had to involve a moment of temporal §initiation. However, in attempting to understand the §essence of creation by appealing solely to the §distinction between the ontological necessity of the §Creator and the ontological contingency of the §created, many philosophers and theologians have §contributed to the eclipse of this feature of the §classical notion. This book examines the primacy and §sufficiency of that distinction. Finding this §distinction, by itself, to be injurious to the §classically conceived Judeo-Christian God, it argues §that the concept of creation out of nothing must §also incorporate the idea of temporal initiation. §Therefore, an investigation into the question of the §eternity of the world is paramount to its success. §Following historical and systematic examinations of §this question, it concludes with a meditative §reflection that attempts to ground a method for §clarifying divine creation in subjective experience, §rather than in objective theory, due to the §irreconcilable incongruities that seem to result §from the purely rational approach.
