In this respect‚ we might say that Schelling addresses the notion of monotheism through two different level of interpretations. According to one level‚ we can read it from a philosophical point of view‚ exploring through reason the metaphysics underlying the dogma received from the tradition.

Judaism and True Monotheism Monotheism is the belief in one and only one supreme‚ all powerful‚ incomprehensible God. Judaism is known today as a monotheist religion and is seen by some to have started that way.
