The Sacred in the Judeo-Christian Tradition
摘要
This chapter explores the relationship between the sacred, holiness, and divinization within the Jewish-Christian tradition. Using a triangular model connecting God, the temple, and the individual, it examines how divine presence sanctifies sacred spaces and how humans relate to both. Drawing on Henri de Lubac, it argues that human nature exists between the natural and supernatural, oriented toward God. The chapter distinguishes between sacred and holy, emphasizing consecration as a divine act rather than a human effort. It also examines sacred places, their biblical significance, and the theological implications of consecration, sanctification, and sacralization.
