Divine Attributes & Names
How do humans describe the indescribable? Every tradition wrestles with the attributes of the divine — omnipotence, mercy, justice, beauty — while acknowledging that God ultimately transcends all human categories. The 99 Names of Allah, the Sephirot, and the Saguna Brahman all attempt to map the unmappable nature of the sacred.
