The expression \"the beauty of holiness occurs in several places in the Psalms, as well as in the Chronicles. These latter works, drawn from the Psalms, paint a picture of the past as a way of conveying an Hebraic philosophy of history. But the original inspiration of the expression is found peculiarly in the Psalms. Psalm 29:2 reads: \"Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.\" The same thought is found in Psalm 96:8-9. After the \"families of the people\" are enjoined to \"give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name,\" they are called to worship \"in the beauty of holiness.' Psalm 110:3 employs the plural, \"the beauties of holiness'': 'Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.\"","PeriodicalId":82945,"journal":{"name":"The Asbury theological journal","volume":"9 1","pages":"2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88714253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, in spite of a twentieth-century resurgence of interest, many still view the Trinity as one of the greatest Christian mysteries and perhaps some, like our erstwhile pastor, tend to suspect anyone who thinks it intelligible. Wolfhart Pannenberg, the German systematic theologian, notes that as soon as \"it appears that the one God can be better understood\" without the doctrine, it \"seems to be a superfluous addition to the concept of the one God even though it is reverently treated as a mystery of revelation.\"' Thesethings suggest that two possibilities are open to theology. Either it can show that the one God can only be properly understood from a trinitarian construal, or it can allow the doctrine to wither as \"superfluous\" and unimportant. Pannenberg is convinced that the former choice is the correct one.
