This important collection of essays, edited by renowned German philosophers of religion Benedikt P. Göcke and Christian Tapp, is the first of its kind to be exclusively devoted to the largely neglected concept of divine infinity. In a tentative minimal consensus definition, the two editors define the God of biblical revelation and philosophical reasoning alike as the creative and salvific first principle of all things. God’s infinity may be approached in a categorematic and a syncategorematic manner. According to the first, infinity is a divine quality in its own right. According to the second, infinity is not a quality added to God’s other perfections, but a major modifier of each one of them.
