ABSTRACT

lationship of the Divine to the human but also the Word to the world. Her words, she insists, cannot do adequate justice to what she has experienced ("One can hardly touch [it] with words"), but she must try to show, for example, how Christ is "like" a pilgrim, how man's sufferings are "like" Christ's, how the apostles are "like" bees, and how man is "like" an animal. She utilizes parables (parable equals "gelichnis" equals likeness) and dialogues to show the gap she attempts to bridge, a gap that on the earthly plane is characterized by the limits of language and the imperfect nature of man.
