Irrevocable : The Name of God and the Unity of the Christian Bible

The Tetragrammaton, the traditionally unspoken proper name of God, is the most holy of all Gods names in the Bible. Despite its sacredness, Christian theology has often neglected the significance of this divine name, an omission that has fostered Christianitys supersessionist stance toward the Jewish people and created other problems for Christian theology as well.In Irrevocable, author R. Kendall Soulen puts the Tetragrammaton back at the center of Christian theology to demonstrate the difference that Gods proper name makes for Christian faith, from the doctrine of the Trinity to the unity of the Christian Bible and Christianitys relationship to Judaism and Islam.In the end, Soulen reveals how something so holy and so unique can also be so important for all.
