Introducing defragmentation theology, God in Depth explores the various ways in which the Bible portrays the divine system as an interplay of psychological forces that must be examined, comprehended, and integrated into consciousness. Approached from Jungian perspectives, the journey of the Hebrew God toward heightened awareness revolves around the conjunction of opposites: Logos and Eros, reason and relatedness, the shadow and the self, the masculine and the feminine, solar attributes and lunar sensitivities, destructive urges and mature benevolence. In many cases, biblical literature and adjacent texts, most notably rabbinic and kabbalistic interpretations, portray God as a fragmented deity navigating conflicting emotions, conflicting aspirations, and conflicting visions of creation. A series of narrative-changing encounters with biblical women allow God to project the neglected, repressed, or unconscious dimensions of the divine system onto human counterparts. With the withdrawal of these projections, God acknowledges the autonomy of biblical figures and recognizes them as external manifestations of internal struggles. The role of humanity, according to this theology, is to witness and facilitate the defragmentation of God: the steady growth of the divine system toward a greater degree of psychological totality.
