Summary/Abstract: After the introduction, following DV 24, this article describes in three images the relationship between Scripture and theology, emphasizing some dimensions of theology to keep it relevant. The second section deals with the Word of God in its historical realization, showing how the written Word of God is preceded by the communicated Word of God, which by its internal structure cannot be fixed in a book. It also points out that the Church is a place where the Word of God is mediated and realized. From this we arrive at the key insight that the Scriptures are subject to the Word of God and as such are the norma normata, while the Word of God itself, which we cannot observe outside its historical realization, is a norma non normata. The article also highlights the importance of tradition and church teaching for Catholic theological knowledge. The third and final section, starting from the Trinity reading of Revelation as presented by the Italian theologian Bruno Forte, deals with the importance of Divine silence from which the Word of God derives, referring to the dialectic of silence and the Word.
