According to the Orthodox doctrine, the third hypostasis "proceeds" from the first, as the only existential primordial basis, according to the Catholic - from the first and second, as the reality of love that unites them. They all participate in the creation and existence of the cosmos according to the following formula: everything is from the Father (for it is endowed with being from Him), through the Son (for it is arranged through His shaping energy of meaning) and in the Spirit (for it receives vital integrity from Him). There are frequent analogies with 3 grammatical persons (completion of “You” and “I” in “He”), 3 abilities of the soul (memory, thought and love), triple division of time (past, present and future). According to the Orthodox doctrine, the third hypostasis "emanates" from the first, as the only existential primordial basis, according to the Catholic doctrine, from the first and second, as the reality of love that unites them. 3 abilities of the soul (memory, thought and love), triple division of time (past, present and future).

TRINITY has not been the subject of depiction in art for a long time; theology insisted that God can only be portrayed in the face of Jesus Christ, for only in this person did He make Himself visible and manifested; everything else is reprehensible fantasies. However, the appearance of three Angels to Abraham, depicted in the mosaics of the 5th-6th centuries. (Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, San Vitale in Ravenna), is interpreted as a phenomenon of Trinity; this is how the iconographic type “Trinity Old Testament", brought to perfection by the artist Andrei Rublev. S. S. Averintsev's dictionary gives the reader both a universal sum of knowledge from A to Z and the energy of a meaningful personal choice between the narrow path of the "father of faith" Abraham and the wide path of post-atheistic "Paganism." Articles highly appreciated by experts - the decoration of the "Philosophical Encyclopedia" and "New Philosophical Encyclopedia", "Brief Literary Encyclopedia", "Myths of the Nations of the World", "Christianity", etc. - are collected together for the first time in this book. The synthesis of Averintsev's dictionary reveals the special qualities of its constituent elements, which were previously "concealed" by a break in the general context, isolated from each other by a dense fog of ideology. The reader experienced a real shock when, among the empty waters of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, he stumbled upon the rock of Averintsev's article "Logos" or "Love". Unforgettable meetings: amid the haze of half-truths in the ocean of half-knowledge, the articles of the Master have always clearly stood out as high and reliable islands of a special rock, a special crystal clear thought. Covering these islands now with a single glance, we read on the map of the era: the Averintsev Archipelago.

Averintsev's encyclopedic works are not only included in the golden reserve of academic knowledge: they significantly expand the historical experience of overcoming totalitarian ideocracy. The world of Averintsev refutes the misanthropic generalization with which, according to Brodsky, modern Odysseus addresses his son: "Telemachus, all the islands look alike when you wander for so long." Today, the wandering through the articles of Averintsev surprises not only with a rare and for more hospitable epochs variety, but in addition to all its own qualities - the impressive absence of the slightest traces in his texts of that all-pervading atmosphere of murderously monotonous, ugly "prose" of party-state speeches that set the tone and opened all dissertations and dictionaries, any "scientific apparatus". Do not believe it, but only a typo, typographical gaffe (eloquent replacement alone letters: instead of "Patria with matic" - "Patrie ofticheskiy ”) recalls the specifics of censorship in the second half of the 60s, the time when Averintsev's key work about St. Sophia of Kiev was created. In a difficult dispute with the "spirit of the times", hundreds of articles by Averintsev open up new horizons of this inexhaustible world. We must listen to these words. I dare not add anything. The word "cap" is a word very commonly applied to a person who is a leader in war or in peace, although this word is different from a number of other concepts, for example, from the concept of a judge so important in the book of Judges, or from the concept of a king ... In what we have heard, there is learning for us and there is a mystery. And for the secret, we must also thank God!

Characters in some languages, particularly Hebrew and Arabic, may not display properly due to device limitations. Transliterations of terms appear before the representations in foreign characters. This is an encyclopedic dictionary of close to 400 important philosophical, literary, and political terms and concepts that defy easy—or any—translation from one language and culture to another. Drawn from more than a dozen languages, terms such as Dasein (German), pravda (Russian), saudade (Portuguese), and stato (Italian) are thoroughly examined in all their cross-linguistic and cross-cultural complexities. Spanning the classical, medieval, early modern, modern, and contemporary periods, these are terms that influence thinking across the humanities. The entries, written by more than 150 distinguished scholars, describe the origins and meanings of each term, the history and context of its usage, its translations into other languages, and its use in notable texts. The dictionary also includes essays on the special characteristics of particular languages--English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Originally published in French, this one-of-a-kind reference work is now available in English for the first time, with new contributions from Judith Butler, Daniel Heller-Roazen, Ben Kafka, Kevin McLaughlin, Kenneth Reinhard, Stella Sandford, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Jane Tylus, Anthony Vidler, Susan Wolfson, Robert J.

This volume takes the reader on a journey from New Testament and early church views of incarnation to contemporary understandings of Christology. A prominent group of scholars explores and debates the idea of “deep incarnation”—the view that the divine incarnation in Jesus presupposes a radical embodiment that reaches into the roots of material and biological existence, as well as into the darker sides of creation. Such a wide-scope view of incarnation allows Christology to be meaningful when responding to the challenges of scientific cosmology and global religious pluralism.

This multivolume work is still proving to be as fundamental to Old Testament studies as its companion set, the Kittel-Friedrich Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, has been to New Testament studies. Beginning with father, and continuing through the alphabet, the TDOT volumes present in-depth discussions of the key Hebrew and Aramaic words in the Old Testament. Leading scholars of various religious traditions (including Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, Greek Orthodox, and Jewish) and from many parts of the world (Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States) have been carefully selected for each article by editors Botterweck, Ringgren, and Fabry and their consultants, George W. Anderson, Henri Cazelles, David Noel Freedman, Shemaryahu Talmon, and Gerhard Wallis. The intention of the writers is to concentrate on meaning, starting from the more general, everyday senses and building to an understanding of theologically significant concepts. To avoid artificially restricting the focus of the articles, TDOT considers under each keyword the larger groups of words that are related linguistically or semantically. The lexical work includes detailed surveys of a word s occurrences, not only in biblical material but also in other ancient Near Eastern writings. Sumerian, Akkadian, Egyptian, Ethiopic, Ugaritic, and Northwest Semitic sources are surveyed, among others, as well as the Qumran texts and the Septuagint; and in cultures where no cognate word exists, the authors often consider cognate ideas. TDOT s emphasis, though, is on Hebrew terminology and on biblical usage. The contributors employ philology as well as form-critical and traditio-historical methods, with the aim of understanding the religious statements in the Old Testament. Extensive bibliographical information adds to the value of this reference work. This English edition attempts to serve the needs of Old Testament students without the linguistic background of more advanced scholars; it does so, however, without sacrificing the needs of the latter. Ancient scripts (Hebrew, Greek, etc.) are regularly transliterated in a readable way, and meanings of foreign words are given in many cases where the meanings might be obvious to advanced scholars. Where the Hebrew text versification differs from that of English Bibles, the English verse appears in parentheses. Such features will help all earnest students of the Bible to avail themselves of the manifold theological insights contained in this monumental work.
