Eriugeny koncepcja stworzenia wszystkiego z niczego w człowieku
The concept of creating everything from nothing in man according to Eriugena

Summary/Abstract: The Old Testament reveals the truth about God’s creation of everything from nothing. Christianity has accepted this revelation and Christian thinkers have further developed this concept. The Christian Neoplatonist Eriugena, in particular, considered the creation and nothingness out of which God made everything. Interpreting the biblical description of creation in the context of his own philosophical system, Eriugena came to the conclusion that nothingness is the perfect fullness of the goodness of God, who created all the qualities of human nature. A perfect creature was created in a perfect man. The error resulting from an unreasonable choice caused man to get rid of perfection and exist in an imperfect form. The concept of creating everything from nothing in a human being seems to be a prelude to Eriugena’s reflections on the incarnation of the eternal Logos – the Word – God the Son, which makes it possible to return to the state of perfection.
