Abstract

This review essay begins by describing why one should read Esther Meek’s Longing to Know: The Philosophy of Knowledge for Ordinary People (Brazos Press, 2003), then raises questions about the absence of tragedy in her view of knowledge; how ordinary knowledge of things differs from knowledge of God; whether one can “prove“ the Messianic nature of Jesus; and whether Meek’s inclusive epistemology can support an exclusivistic soteriology
