Is time a creation of God? How can God be considered eternal if he is responsible for the existence of time? Is God temporal or is he timeless? The relationship between God and time has been an object of inquiry in philosophical and theological traditions around the world for centuries. This volume takes up these and other questions presenting a range of answers not only as brought forth in European philosophical traditions and in early Christianity Judaism and Islam but also positions taken by mediaeval Indian theologians and in the influential traditions of early Buddhism. Traditionally discussions have focused on questions such as whether time is a necessary concomitant of God's existence or whether time should be identified with God. But there is a further question: did these traditions develop their own unrelated and independent view of God and time? Or are there similarities in their reflections? This volume with contributions of scholars from various relevant fields offers a novel approach to these inquiries. When taken as a whole it provides new momentum to contemplation on an age-old enigma.
