| Σύνοψη: | A key theological activity by which humans come to know God is explored here, namely prayer. Following closely the work of Thomas Aquinas the dazzling darkness of the unnameable one is discovered, while simultaneously learning that it is imperative that the unnameable one is named. Aquinas offers an invitation to follow the example of Jesus in prayer, and address God as Our Father'. This, the most perfect of prayers is considered in detail. Patriarchal distortion of father language is not forgotten. Led by Aquinas reflecting on Jesus' prayer what is meant by the human address of God as Father' is explored in detail. Aquinas is clear. In all God talk that which humans talk about is always beyond language, beyond concepts, beyond all human formulation. |
