Summary
Jacobi’s central role in the Spinoza controversy opened the eyes of the young Schleiermacher and shaped his development as a theological thinker. Probably even more influential, however, was Jacobi’s philosophical concept of intuition as a source of the evidence of God, which this chapter explores both for Schleiermacher and Rudolf Otto.
