Summary
The consequences of the ontological revolution presented are extremely relevant to the theory of knowledge. In fact, if the first principle is relational, knowledge in relation is no longer inferior, as in the Greek doxa, but is the only way to access the properly personal dimension, that is, the depth of being itself. This makes it possible to highlight theologically the connection between apophaticism and worship.
