The Biblical Self-Expression of God and the Free Self- Expression of Man in the Thought of Angelo Bertuletti

Abstract

This article, which draws on the research of A. Bertuletti and his methodical contribution, is articulated in two parts. The first focuses on the biblical form of the truth: the scriptures, as a «punctured» page, welcome the reader who enters in, just as the «pierced» body of the Risen One – whose truth is configured in the apostolic faith, prefigured in the historical Jesus and refigured in the life of the
believer – welcomes the faith of the one who entrusts himself. The second part demonstrates, in a phenomenological examination of human experience, how the biblical form of «reciprocity», has also influenced the main turning points of western philosophy.
