Descripción
Sumario:The article takes the experience of exegetics of the initial phase of the gospel text “At the beginning, there was a Word, and God had a Word, and God was the Word” based on a systematic approach to a language. Considering the language as an actual and at the same time a virtual phenomenon, the authors justify the synonymic character of lexemes Word, Number (V. Nalimov), Sound (A. Makarevich), Music (N. Bobyleva), Emotion (V. Shakhovskiy), Gesture (A. and N. Ustiny). Starting with the binary oppositions, rational-irrational, verbal-nonverbal, discrete-continual, real-virtual, authors suggest a linguistic (psycholinguistic) perspective in the process of interpretation of such religious phenomena as the Trinity and theеру Cross. As a result, the authors conclude that the biblical Word is the process of organization of the informational system of the innate natural “arrangement” (God-Father) to transform it into an above-natural “arrangement” (Holy Spirit).
