Paul J.

Paul J. DeHart delves into the intricate realm of divine transcendence, exploring the profound implications of the doctrine of creation ex nihilo for contemporary theology and philosophy. Through his meticulous examination, he uncovers the unique mode of divine infinity and investigates the challenging questions that arise when embracing an infinite God. DeHart examines the concept of saving knowledge or faith in the face of such an expansive notion of deity, contemplating how it can harmonize with radical notions of transcendence. He also explores the potential threats to the doctrine of creation when the radical otherness of the creators mind is not upheld.

In his engaging exploration, DeHart engages with a diverse array of influential figures, including Jean-Luc Marion, Schleiermacher, Kierkegaard, Kathryn Tanner, John Milbank, and Rowan Williams. These scholars serve as valuable companions in his quest, contributing their unique perspectives and insights. This volume tackles profound conceptual issues, demonstrating that creation ex nihilo remains a vibrant and lively topic in contemporary theology.

Through his meticulous analysis and thoughtful engagement, Paul J. DeHart offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the doctrine of creation ex nihilo. This work will be of immense interest to scholars, theologians, and philosophers seeking to deepen their understanding of the divine and its implications for contemporary thought.
