Transcendence and Intertwining

Original language description

Abstract: In this article, we address the paradox that Hume first raised regarding the transcendence of God: If we admit that God infinitely transcends our understanding, then, as Hume writes, }}we abandon all religion and retain no conception of the great object of our adoration.(( Yet, if we understand God in human terms, we slip very easily into what can become an absurd anthropomorphism. Hume&apos;s argument works by radically opposing transcendence and immanence. It makes God totally other. Against this, we argue that transcendence is inherent in the world. Its immanence, however, does not mean the absorption of what is transcendent. Rather, it signifies the intertwining of categories that are mutually transcendent. It is such intertwining, we argue, that explains the Incarnation - i.e., the fact that Jesus is both man and God. It shows how he can assert that }}I am in the Father and the Father is in me.((
