An account of God’s unity that remains true to the genuine variety of religious experiences can be called an empirical monotheism. We present a “triangle argument” that shows how, when God relates simultaneously to more than one moral agent, the opacity of thoughts and opinions leads to the need for distinguishing two divine principles of action, called by the Talmudic Sages the principles of justice and of kindness. Compared to other possible approaches, the moral struggle between these principles offers the most robust empirical monotheism. It is, however, imperfect in that the full unity of God’s name remains a not-yet-completed fact which can only be achieved by a transformation of the human world.
