It is suggested that the concepts of naïve-realism, critical realism and non-realism (or anti-realism) as utilised in this particular subdiscipline of philosophy may provide useful, nuanced and functional meta-ontological categories for classifying what Old Testament theologians appear to believe about the text-reality relation and the ontological status of YHWH. |
