Trinity and time : an investigation into God's being and his relationship with the created order, with special reference to Karl Barth and Robert W. Jenson

It seems that from the inception of western civilization as we know it the question of the nature of our time has been prominent. In fact, Sherover has claimed that “it was concern with the nature of time and change that first provoked the Western development of rational thinking about the world…” Thinking about time, though, has experienced the ebb and flow of history that is typical of any subject, where at certain epochs the issue was more recognized than at others. Among the many important contributions of twentieth century thought has been a renewed interest in the nature of time and the correlate to this phenomenon has been the resurgence within Christian thought of the relationship of God and time.
