The Divine Name(s) and the Holy Trinity, Volume One

“Thoroughly researched and beautifully written, this book makes a deeply important contribution to the central question of theology. At once clear, learned, and engaging, Soulen’s approach stakes out an original way of understanding that will enlighten interested readers inside and outside the academy. One of the best books on naming God in years.”
—Elizabeth A. Johnson, C.S.J., Distinguished Professor of Theology, Fordham University

“Disciplined by careful and acute analysis of the history of Trinitarian theology, there is a wonderfully creative theological imagination at work here.”
—David H. Kelsey, Professor Emeritus of Theology, Yale Divinity School

“Few scholars can claim to have discerned a new research paradigm. And few of these have themselves carried it out, with a fully ramified development. Kendall Soulen has done both. A major achievement.”
—Robert W. Jenson, Professor Emeritus of Religion, St. Olaf College

“The chapters read like a brilliant detective story, with the clues as well documented as the conclusion is revealing.”
—Christopher L. Morse, Professor of Theology and Ethics, Union Theological Seminary
