Pseudo Dionysius recaptures for us the true essence of Who God is, who we are, and how all things exist within Him. So often, we pull God down and into what we will have Him be. We will apply attributes and other factors to Him as though these were garnered from another source. When He's already explained to us WHO HE IS, when He responded, "I AM WHO AM," which could easily be parleyed into "I AM WHAT YOU NEED." From the great plethora of written texts, there are two outstanding writers who must always be given due respect and recognition. In the Roman or Latin West, it is Augustine, and in the Greek East, it is Pseudo Dionysius. To appreciate and grasp the benefits of what remains of the Dionysian Corpus, it must be understood from his perspective, time, and place. He is at the turn of the century; he's no doubt classically trained, and his rhetoric does not suffer in forming his thorough and exhaustive explanations.
