El amor en las cartas de Pablo / Love on Letters of Paul
Main Article Content
Abstract
El artículo estudia el tema del amor en las cartas auténticas de Pablo (Rm, 1-2 Co, Ga, Flp, 1 Ts, Flm). Y lo hace desde la perspectiva del acontecimiento mesiánico, centro vertebrador de la reflexión teológica y de la actividad misional de Pablo. Su primera parte está dedicada al amor liberador mesiánico, esto es, a la gran acción salvadora que el Dios del amor incondicional ha realizado por medio de Jesús, su agente mesiánico. Después de aducir el espléndido texto de Rm 8,31-39, se reseñan, en primer lugar, los textos paulinos sobre el amor liberador de Dios manifestado en la muerte salvadora del mesías, para citar a continuación los textos paulinos sobre el amor del Dios de la elección mesiánica. La segunda parte del artículo dirige la mirada al amor de la comunidad mesiánica, posibilitado desde el nuevo ámbito abierto por el acontecimiento mesiánico. En un primer apartado se estudian los textos paulinos sobre el principio del amor en cuanto nueva norma mesiánica, fundada en la “proexistencia” del mesías Jesús, muerto en cruz en favor nuestro. Y en un segundo apartado se aducen los diversos textos paulinos que presentan el amor efectivo como centro configurador de las múltiples manifestaciones de la vida de la comunidad mesiánica, concluyendo con el precioso encomio del amor en 1 Cor 13, un probable alargamiento de la escuela paulina posterior.
The article reviews the topic of love on the original letters of Paul (Rm, 1-2 Co, Ga, Flp, 1 Ts, Flm). And it does so from the point of view of the Messianic event, which is the core to both the theological reflection and the missionary activity by Paul. The first part is dedicated to the releasing powers of Messianic love, that is to say, the maginific salvation acts carried out by the God of inconditional Love through Jesuschrist, who is his Messianic agent. After adducing the splendid text on Rm 8,31-39, we find a review of the texts by Paul on God’s releasing Love, which is displayed on the death of the Messiah. This is done in order to quote, later on, Paul’s texts on God’s Love regarding a Messianic choice. The second part of the article aims at the love for the Messianic community, which has been made possible thanks to the new field opened by the Messianic event. In the first section, we revise Paul’s texts on the principles of love according to Messianic norms, which are based on Jesus’s “proexistence”. Jesus, who died in order to save us all. In the second section, several of Paul’s texts are alleged. Such texts introduce affective love as the centre to multiple manifestations of life within the Messianic community. We will finish with a wonderful praise addressed to the fragment on 1 Cor 13.
