About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked in a bright, tight, and square binding. Only defect is the previous owner's name on the top outside corner of the front free end paper. "All talk about God staggers under impossible difficulties. Yet monotheists have all been very positive about language at the same time as they have denied its capacity to express the transcendent reality. The God of Jews, Christians, and Musims is a God who - in some sense - speaks. His word is crucial in all three faiths. The Word of God has shaped the history of our culture. We have to decide whether the word 'God' has any meaning for us today."
