Zusammenfassung:Recent studies have renewed focus on Martin Buber's "theopolitics" in contrast to "theological politics." The present study expands this work by looking at what Buber meant by God. His approach to the Bible, informed by his view that "extended, the lines of relationship meet in the Eternal Thou," illuminates his analysis of the five types of biblical leadership. That analysis, far from separating "religion" and "politics," seemed to assume what might be designated a civil religion. The social order was integrated with religious concerns. Underneath the socio-religious surface, however, Buber discerned universal principles of relationship. Analyzing each stage in biblical leadership as Buber presented it shows how he extended the lines of historical relationships to reveal an aspect of the Eternal Thou.
