Definition of kenosis
1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included
noun
-
(countable, uncountable)Christ's voluntary abasement consisting of humanity and the simultaneous occultation of the Divinity.
“So then, kenosis is the general way in which God interacts with the world. It is interesting to ponder that the term kenosis is most frequently linked to Christ's voluntary renunciation of certain divine attributes in order to identify himself with mankind, as recorded in the Pauline hymn found in Phil 2:5–11.”
