Having a nature or existence that is both one and two simultaneously; united in a twofold manner (used especially in philosophy and theology).
From Latin 'biunus,' combining 'bi-' (two) and 'unus' (one). This rare word appears in medieval and modern philosophical and theological writings to describe paradoxical unity.
Christian theologians use 'biune' to describe the Trinity—they say God is both one and three simultaneously, a paradox that philosophers have debated for over 2,000 years!
