Abstract
“Milieu” (extending the work of Teilhard de Chardin) is proposed as the central image for interpreting evolution in a theological framework. Evolution constitutes the milieu in which we live, and this milieu is ultimately a divine milieu, the work of God. The following arguments elaborate this proposal: (1) we must place our efforts to give a theological appraisal of evolution within the classical theological context of apophasis and cataphasis. (2) The scientific study of evolution is religiously and theologically important because it throws light on the works of God (God's economy). (3) The divine energies are a realm of hiddenness, embedded in paradox. The biblical Book of Job epitomizes our situation as we explore the divine milieu of evolution.
