학문연구에 있어서 한 통전적 방법론의 원리 - 삼위일체의 관점에서

Abstract

This thesis puts forward the principle of a holistic methodology that was done as academic research and was arranged in a new perspective by the writer, in the perspective of the Trinity. By ‘academic’, whilst it is not clear to what extent this will contribute to general academy, it is basically limited to the systematic theology. The writer first insists that the integrative method and the holistic method, amongst several methods, come forth in totally different directions, whilst consider upon them by comparing them. Whilst the integrative method would be a method that starts from an entity or a part, and aims at the whole by putting them together; the holistic method studies, starting with seeing the whole and then starting from it, how entities and parts are connected to the whole, and also what relations are formed between the parts and the whole. What could be said to have been gained considerably through this study is that the meaning and the usage of pa'"(each, every) that is used alongside and in comparison with o{lo"(all, whole), which is the origin of the English word ‘holistic’, whilst considering the range of its usage in the examples in the New Testament. When o { l o " indicates, as ‘all’ in English does, that the whole forms one; pa'", like ‘every’, indicates the entity for the whole, and was found to be able to form a dynamic relations when they are together. In light of the relations between these two terms, the Triune God is the Oneness on the whole, and at the same time the Three-ness, where each Person,that is the Holy Father, the Holy Son, and the Holy Spirit, is increately one with the whole as every Person, and where each Person (Personality) is in equal relations with the whole. From this relationship,the possibility that the humanity can overcome both collectivism and individualism may be seen. It also was viewed that true freedom and obedience are intrinsically within a single authority, whilst stating that the Trinity and the created world, both of which came forth from the authority of the Holy father, may only become one under the authority. The balance between the Unity of the Trinity, and Diversity was also looked at. The principle of a holistic methodology in academic research is put forward in conclusion after holistically arranging perspectives of the Trinity.
