Abstract

This article offers a personal narrative and theoretical reflection on my relationship with Brent Dean Robbins as a hermeneutics of love. A hermeneutics of love is thus refigured as an interpersonal dynamic in addition to an epistemology. With reflection on this narrative and theory, it is shown that in our conversations, the synergistic intertwining of hermeneutics, love, and ethics brought forth divining moments as understanding, loveliness, and illeity. Furthermore, these divining moments revealed the existential givenness of faith and the miraculous.
