Abstract

The impression, claimed by many theistic religions that God, the Almighty, reveals Himself in some way and REVELATION is the manifestation of Divine reality and sacred ultimate goal to mankind and confirmed through mystical insights, historical evidence or spiritual experience of individuals and groups, has been addressed by a number of philosophers and theologians. The REVELATION, according to Divine religions, is primarily known as the ‘Word of God’, enabling the Divine prophets to speak with certainty about God’s intentions and ordinance. The theologians and philosophers are of the opinion that REVELATION manifests itself in a number of ways and symbols, such as auditory phenomenon, subjective visions, dreams, etc. They have always observed the nature of REVELATION as the Divine message from different perspectives. Moreover, there is the possibility to analyze REVELATION as a linguistic utterance. From the linguistic standpoint, God has revealed propositions to some of his chosen prophets and has also inspired Mohammad (PBUH) to compile the holy Quran verses in the seventh century AD, the content and style of which show its Divine origin.In fact, the main purpose of the present study is to analyze the linguistic structure of REVELATION through Ferdinand de SAUSSURE’s views, making distinction between the two inseparable components of sign: the signifier and the signified as the basic concepts in semiotics. SAUSSURE as the founder of STRUCTURALISM has studied two dichotomies, so-called parole and langue. Although the word of REVELATION cannot be fully digested through SAUSSURE’s structural theories, it can help us study the relationship between God and Gabriel in one side and the holy Prophet in the other side and then that of the holy Prophet and the people through developing this structural frame. Thus, the present article views the lexical notion of REVELATION through the lens of philosophical approach and then surveys the phenomenon of REVELATION trough structural linguistic perspective.
