Examining the Trinity and Temple together, Daniélou brings to light the progression of God’s dwelling with men, from the self-announcing God of Abraham to the “hidden” God of Mount Sinai, from the Incarnation of Jesus Christ in the womb of the Virgin Mary to His dwelling in the Mystical Body, the new Temple of the Catholic Church, and in every member of that Mystical Body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eTruly, the world we live in is a world filled with the Trinity.… The whole of nature is like a temple in which God dwells.\u003c\/em\u003e (Jean Daniélou, S.J.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Trinity and the Temple\u003c\/i\u003e combines two brief works from Daniélou’s corpus: \u003ci\u003eGod’s Life in Us\u003c\/i\u003e (\u003ci\u003eLa Trinité et le mystère de l’existence\u003c\/i\u003e, 1969) and \u003ci\u003eThe Presence of God\u003c\/i\u003e (\u003ci\u003eLe signe du temple\u003c\/i\u003e, 1959).
