or a change from abstract rational understanding and from caprice

English Social Sciences Philosophy Jaspers' pathography on the prophet Ezechiel

It is also remarkable how closely Jaspers connects the levels of fact
and value judgement when he describes the principle ‘style and atmosphere’ of this book
of the Bible. He speaks of a ‘manner of sensualizing the spiritual which is not only crude
but also without feeling and shameless, or a change from abstract rational understanding
and from caprice’.

I don't understand the idea.

I got the original Impossibile to understand the English, the subject is missing (or referring to another word) and I think the last "from" is not correct. For those you understand German, here is the text (which is now clear to me :):
Schließlich lassen sich im Stil und der Stimmung von (Buch) Züge aufweisen, die man charakterisieren kann als grelle Deutlichkeit, oder als pedantische (...), oder als eine Weise von Versinnlichung des Gestigen, die nicht nur derb, sondern auch gefühlslos und shamlos wirkt, oder als Abwechslung von abtraktem Verstandesrationalismus und vom Willkür.
