Michael M. Morbey: "Parallels to the Byzantine-Hesychast, Divine Essence/Energies Distinction."(.pdf file). In this article, Morbey draws some very interesting parallels between the philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd and certain ideas of Eastern Orthodoxy. Although these parallels may surprise some Calvinist reformational philosophers, Dooyeweerd had clear influences in the direction of Orthodoxy.

ABSTRACT:

The Byzantine-Hesychast Essence/energies distinction is paralleled by

1. The traditional Reformed distinction of God as transcendent (and incomprehensible) in

His essence and immanent in His power;

2. The orthodox Jewish Kabbalistic distinction of God (en-sof, the infinite) and the

Sephiroth (Law spheres) or organic Torah and divine language, in which His creative

power unfolds;

3. The Reformational Cosmonomic Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd as Christian

Theosophy: God’s Self-revelation in the Word and the words;

4. Early New Testament Jewish Christian Angelomorphic Christology.
