Reconciliation (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠placed by the believer in the distant future, as the redeemer's was in the distant past: it is in his heart, while his consciousness is divided and his world still disrupted.

Reconciliation (n.) between ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠subject and substance, in Hegel, means accepting there is no firm foundation: the subject is not its own origin, but its presuppositions are posited only retroactively.
