Cornelius Plantinga The webbing together of God, humans, and all creation in justice, fulfillment and delight is what the Hebrew prophets call shalom…. shalom means universal flourishing, wholeness, and delight – a rich state of affairs in which natural needs are satisfied and natural gifts fruitfully employed, a state of affairs that inspires joyful wonder as its Creator and Savior opens doors and welcomes the creatures in whom He delights. Shalom, in other words, is the way things ought to be.
