This book unlocks the Jewish theology of YHWH in three central
stages of Jewish thought: the Hebrew bible, rabbinic literature,
and medieval philosophy and mysticism. 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 about God
and the wish to speak to 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.
