ABSTRACT

I hope that my discussion of the writings considered in the previous chapters will have offered interesting samples from a spectrum of views on man’s relation with God at a time of social upheaval. It is clear that the concept man has of God affects the concept he has of himself and of the validity of his action. In this way, it is possible to observe the differences in identity which each of the aforementioned writers conferred on himself. It is with a consideration of this that I shall conclude.
