nunc stans

xiii. The fact that the traditional conception of “eternity” [Ewigkeit ] as signifying the “standing “now” (nunc stans), has been drawn from the ordinary way of understanding time and has been defined with an orientation towards the idea of ‘constant’ presence-at-hand , does not need to be discussed in detail. If God’s eternity can be ‘construed’ philosophically, then it may be understood only as a more primordial temporality which is ‘infinite’. Whether the way afforded by the via negationis et eminentiae is a possible one, remains to be seen. [BTMR ]
