This is a creative scholarly argument revisiting the substance,
understanding, and implications of the doctrine of creation ex
nihilo for contemporary theology and philosophy. Paul J. DeHart
examines the special mode of divine transcendence (God's infinity)
and investigates areas where accepting an infinite God presents
challenging questions to Christian theology. He discusses what
"saving knowledge" or "faith" would have to look like when
confronted by such an unlimited conception of deity, and ponders
how the doctrine of God's trinity can be brought into harmony with
radical notions of transcendence, as well as ways the doctrine of
creation itself is threatened when the radical otherness of the
creator's mind is not maintained. DeHart engages with a diverse
range of figures: Jean-Luc Marion, Schleiermacher, Kierkegaard,
Kathryn Tanner, John Milbank and Rowan Williams, to illustrate his
conviction. This volume deals with deep conceptual issues,
indicating that creation ex nihilo remains a lively topic in
contemporary theology.
