| Summary: | Although biblical faith is based on an experience of God in history, biblical Hebrew, paradoxically, does not have a word to designate «history», understood as the course of events, progressively studied and written down.

The article characterizes the cross-use of these two categories in the Bible, showing that God’s project is deeply linked to the scanning of generations, before and after each covenant, before and after the event of Jesus Christ. |
