APPENDIX G: Push v. Push & Pull

DAVID BIRNBAUM SUMMA METAPHYSICA

Classic Western and Jewish philosophy*
(call them both Model #1) each has –

the “Concrete subject” –
God –
“pushing” Creation forward –
in the moment.

Whereas my metaphysics
(call it Model #2) has –

a) Q4P∞/Extraordinariation
“pushing” Creation forward inexorably

as well as

b) the future perfection goal-point –
Infinite Divine Potential –
“pulling” and igniting Creation –
from the future.

Thus, these are 2 very different “models”
– on multiple levels.
