And so we are not too surprised that by the 1963 Letters to Malcolm, we have this glowing summation of Buber’s thought: He reveals Himself as Person: or reveals that in Him which is Person. For—dare one say it? in a book it would need pages of qualification and insurance—God is in some measure to a man as that man is to God. The door in God that opens is the door he knocks at. . . . The Person in Him—He is more than a person—meets those who can welcome or at least face it. He speaks as “I” when we truly call Him “Thou.” (How good Buber is!).
