Despite being a pillar of belief in the Judeo-Christian tradition,
the idea of revelation was deeply discredited over the course of
the Enlightenment. The post-Enlightenment restoration of revelation
among German religious thinkers is a fascinating yet
underappreciated moment in modern efforts to navigate between
reason and faith. The Rebirth of Revelation compares Protestant,
Catholic, and Jewish reflections on revelation from 1750 to 1850
and asserts that a strategic transformation in the term's meaning
secured its relevance for the modern age. Tuska Benes argues that
"propositional" revelation, understood as the infallible
dispensation of doctrine, gave way to revelation as a subjective
process of inner transformation or the historical disclosure of
divine being in the world. By comparatively approaching the
unconventional ways in which Protestantism, Catholicism, and
Judaism have rehabilitated the concept of revelation, The Rebirth
of Revelation restores theology to a central place in modern
European intellectual history.
