Résumé
--
On every page of the Bible, we can read: 'God said unto Abraham', 'God said unto Moses', 'the Oracle of the Lord'... as though God were on regular speaking terms with man. So familiar are these expressions that we no longer notice how astonishing they are. In fact, they raise many questions. Because no one sees God! God has no mouth! How can he speak to man? Are the authors of the Bible claiming that Abraham, Moses or the prophets heard the sound of his voice, at the heart of the Burning Bush, on the mountain, in storms or light breezes? Did God give these men a dictation? Today, men feel that God is the quiet type. Aren't all these stories just a trick or an illusion that man, in the solitude of his mortality, invented: an imaginary partner for whom he provides both questions and answers? We've made God 'say' so many things over thousands of years, even encouraging men to make war and exterminate their enemies, for God's greater glory! So how does God speak to man? How does he communicate with us? How can divine transcendence and infinity make contact with man's finitude? What language do they speak? How does God speak to us today? The entire question of Revelation and the foundations of Judeo-Christianity is posed. And how we respond determines in part our way of reading the Scriptures (fundamentalism, literalism), our conception of God (providentialism, interventionism), and how we understand that God still speaks to us. Michel Hubaut answers all these questions in a pedagogical and knowledgeable manner.
