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. 410 0$aJewish Thought and Philosophy 606 $aJudaism$xDoctrines 606 $aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy 606 $aHistory 606 $aJewish Theology 606 $aPhilosophy of Language 606 $aHistory 615 0$aJudaism$xDoctrines. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aJewish Theology. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Language. 615 24$aHistory. 676 $a231 676 $a900 700 $aBen-Sasson$b Hillel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0987271 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bCaOLH 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910364947303321 996 $aUnderstanding YHWH$92256461 997 $aUNINA
