This Master’s thesis aims to address the relevance of Claude Geffré’s theological hermeneutics for the understanding of the phenomenon of revelation from the perspective of religious pluralism. According to Geffré, a theology with hermeneutical orientation designates the very fate of theological reason in the context of contemporary thinking, as it relates to a new position in today’s religious pluralism. Given the current religious polyphony found among the plurality of world religions, Christianity is called to express and to redefine its unique identity. To Geffré, the sacred can only be conceived as a multifaceted phenomenon. There is an enigma within this plural otherness of religious conceptions, whose manifestation expresses the spiritual richness of the human experience of the divine. The confessions of faith emerge from tradition, whose settings cannot be conceived only as an instance of juridical acts, but as the very translation of acts of interpretation that seek to address existential crisis situations, where the element of faith is called into question. Changing the contextual situations causes an adaptation of the original sense of the reality at stake. The reception dynamic brings about an opening of the statements of faith revealed and elaborated dogmatically. The willingness to recast creatively the meaning of faith in view of the new historical experience brings in a vitality to the statements of faith. Catholic theology has sought to overcome an ecclesiocentric standpoint so as to embrace a more ecumenical and kingdom-centered sense of God’s revelation in history.
