Abstract

The Demonstration of the Oneness and Threeness of God by ᶜAḇdīšūᶜ bar Brīḫā (died in 1318) is based on logical arguments. Through logical reasoning he first brings forth three Principles of the Religion: the world is originated, the world has the Originator, and that Originator is the One and He has Three Attributes. Observing the pure Essence of God, ᶜAḇdīšūᶜ deduces the necessity of three Attributes of the Essence: the necessity of Existence, Wisdom, and Life. The One God exists in three qnome: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
