Eternity Between Space and Time
Ein Kapitel aus dem Buch Eternity Between Space and Time

Abstract

Before the modern physical ‘revolution’ on the conception of time/ space, it was the modern theological (and philosophical) thought that threw the ‘classical’ view of time and history into crisis. This crisis is emblematically expressed by the metaphor of ‘the death of God’ (Nietzsche, Hegel and Jüngel), which challenged the classical ontological view of being and of God. Such a metaphor made it possible to think of time and history as a revelatory place of God’s eternity.
