A landmark work on language and the doctrine of the Trinity. From 2015-2022, Pierce Taylor Hibbs (MAR, ThM Westminster Theological Seminary) wrote a series of articles that delved into the mysteries of God and language. Each article was published in Westminster Theological Journal. All of these articles are now collected for the first time, with a foreword by Vern Sheridan Poythress. Scholars, theologians, and philosophers alike will find much in this volume to engage with and pursue even further.


One of the most mysterious truths is that God speaks. As creatures, we speak in his image. What are the implications of this revealed truth? In this collection of essays, the author expounds and explores the relationship between language and the doctrine of the Trinity. The topics range from a theological definition of language, to language as a proof of God's existence, to the nature of metaphor, and even a "linguistic ontology," that is, a theory of how all things exist only because of God's divine speech. Theologians, scholars, and researchers will find much to engage with here, especially in the work of Kenneth L. Pike, whose language theory the author has studied at great length. Read, explore, and marvel at the God who is always speaking, and who has given language to us as a holy gift.
