( Heschel - Between God & Man)
Ultimate meaning and
ultimate wisdom are not found within the world but in God & the
only way to wisdom is through our relationship to God. This
relationship is awe. Awe in this sense is more than an
emotion; it is away of understanding. Knowledge is fostered by
curiosity, wisdom (p 52) is fostered by awe.
The secret of every being is the divine care & concern that
are invested in it.
id.
We must be guided by awe to be worthy of faith.
