Providing a single conceptual key adapted from the philosophical debate on proper names, the book paints a dynamic picture of YHWH's meanings over a spectrum of periods and genres, portraying an evolving interaction between two theological motivations: the wish to speak \u003ci\u003eabout\u003c\/i\u003e God and the wish to speak \u003ci\u003eto\u003c\/i\u003e Him. Through this investigation, the book shows how Jews interpreted God's name in attempt to map the human-God relation, and to determine the measure of possibility for believers to realize a divine presence in their midst, through language.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45273977290903,"sku":"9783030323141","price":8079.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783030323141.webp?v=1769238268","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/understanding-yhwh-the-name-of-god-in-biblical-rabbinic-and-medieval-jewish-thought-9783030323141","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
