This is an unprecedented event, if one remembers the usual way women were treated by those who were teachers in Israel; whereas in Jesus of Nazareth's way of acting such an event becomes normal. This is the God who "in many and various ways spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days has spoken to us by a Son" (Heb 1:1-2). Before this there were the women on the Via Dolorosa, "who bewailed and lamented him" (Lk 23:27). This event is clearly interpersonal in character: it is a dialogue. Such a "restricted" picture would go hand in hand with a materialistic concept of the human being and of the world. Public opinion today tries in various ways to "abolish" the evil of this sin. Facebook. Therefore she is truly the Mother of God, because motherhood concerns the whole person, not just the body, nor even just human "nature". This eternal truth about the human being, man and woman - a truth which is immutably fixed in human experience - at the same time constitutes the mystery which only in "the Incarnate Word takes on light... (since) Christ fully reveals man to himself and makes his supreme calling clear", as the Council teaches. The Church, therefore, "imitating the Mother of her Lord, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, ... preserves with virginal purity an integral faith, a firm hope, and a sincere charity".[47]. For the husband is the head of the wife" (5:22-23). This entrusting is the test of love, spousal love. St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae, Ia, q.

The Second Vatican Council, confirming the teaching of the whole of tradition, recalled that in the hierarchy of holiness it is precisely the "woman", Mary of Nazareth, who is the "figure" of the Church. Eph 5:23), he has loved every individual person. 1 Pt 2:9), who not only share in the priestly mission but also in the prophetic and kingly mission of Christ the Messiah. Gen 2: 24). 13, 4: PG 12, 234; St. Gregory of Nyssa, De virg. für „die Würde der Frau") ist der Titel des Apostolischen Schreibens vom 15. It also means that man and woman, created as a "unity of the two" in their common humanity, are called to live in a communion of love, and in this way to mirror in the world the communion of love that is in God, through which the Three Persons love each other in the intimate mystery of the one divine life. In this way "being the bride", and thus the "feminine" element, becomes a symbol of all that is "human", according to the words of Paul: "There is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus" (Gal 3:28). For it is precisely those born of earthly mothers, the sons and daughters of the human race, who receive from the Son of God the power to become "children of God" (Jn 1:12). Gen 2:18-25) makes use of different language to express the truth about the creation of man, and especially of woman. Creating man and woman in his own image and likeness, God wills for them the fullness of good, or supernatural happiness, which flows from sharing in his own life. Published on 15 August, 1988, the letter advocates for Christian complementarianism. From the very "beginning" sin had obscured this awareness, in a sense had stifled it, as is shown in the words of the first temptation by the "father of lies" (cf. Doctrina Social de la Iglesia: MULIERIS DIGNITATEM Resumen de las encíclicas sociales escritas por diferentes Papas. [23]"Persona est naturae rationalis individua substantia": Manlius Severinus Boethius, Liber de persona et duabus naturis, III: PL 64, 1343; cf. It implies a reference to the mutual relationship of man and woman in marriage. What is goodness and what is sin? 211, 438-445; v, 19, 1: 5.

By speaking and acting in this way, Jesus made it clear that "the mysteries of the Kingdom" were known to him in every detail. In "vocation" understood in this way, what is personally feminine reaches a new dimension: the dimension of the "mighty works of God", of which the woman becomes the living subject and an irreplaceable witness. Rom 12:1), give witness to Christ in every place, and give an explanation to anyone who asks the reason for the hope in eternal life that is in them (cf. Acts 2: 17). 5: PG 44, 137). The Bride is loved: it is she who receives love, in order to love in return. Mulieris Dignitatem; Mulieris Dignitatem. In it the Pope set out the current Roman Catholic attitude towards women. This is an event without precedent: that a woman, and what is more a "sinful woman", becomes a "disciple" of Christ. The "royal priesthood", which is universal, at the same time expresses the gift of the Bride. Rom 8:4). 2010, Ave Maria L. Rev. Mt 25:1-13). Lk 2: 35), our thoughts go to all the suffering women in the world, suffering either physically or morally. 1 Cor 13:13) will have its definitive fulfillment. Already in the Book of Genesis we can discern, in preliminary outline, the spousal character of the relationship between persons, which will serve as the basis for the subsequent development of the truth about motherhood, and about virginity, as two particular dimensions of the vocation of women in the light of divine Revelation. Hosea 11:1-4; Jer 3:4-19), but also sometimes as the "feminine" love of a mother. [23] Thanks to this property, man and woman are able to "dominate" the other creatures of the visible world (cf. 119, 404-419; De beat. ; St. Ambrose, "In Lc" II, 7: "S. Mary is the "figure" of the Church:[43]: "For in the mystery of the Church, herself rightly called mother and virgin, the Blessed Virgin came first as an eminent and singular exemplar of both virginity and motherhood. They are also the first to be called to announce this truth to the Apostles (cf. In this regard a statement of the Second Vatican Council is especially significant. The comparison Eve-Mary can be understood also in the sense that Mary assumes in herself and embraces the mystery of the "woman" whose beginning is Eve, "the mother of all the living" (Gen 3:20). In this way a consecrated woman finds her Spouse, different and the same in each and every person, according to his very words: "As you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me" (Mt 25:40). She is the first to meet the Risen Christ. Nevertheless, in itself this "generating" has neither "masculine" nor "feminine" qualities. Mulieris Dignitatem | On the Dignity and Vocation of Women. Hence Mary attains a union with God that exceeds all the expectations of the human spirit. [42] Cf. Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions "Nostra aetate," 2. The biblical texts, from Genesis onwards, constantly enable us to discover the ground in which the truth about man is rooted, the solid and inviolable ground amid the many changes of human existence. Earlier still, there was Pilate's wife, who had warned her husband: "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much over him today in a dream" (Mt 27:19). Cf. This statement is primarily ontological in nature, and it gives rise to an ethical affirmation. XIV, 87-89: PL 16, 326-327; St. Cyril of Alexandria, Hom. "Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again" (cf. Num 23:19; Hos 11:9; Is 40:18; 46:5; cf. Perhaps the most significant example of this is the Samaritan woman at the well of Sychar. When we say that the woman is the one who receives love in order to love in return, this refers not only or above all to the specific spousal relationship of marriage. At this point, however, we can say that the biblical account puts forth the truth about the personal character of the human being. Jn 8:44). [31] Cf. We find in these passages an indirect confirmation of the truth that both man and woman were created in the image and likeness of God. Independently of the meaning which "it is not expedient" had at that time in the mind of the disciples, Christ takes their mistaken opinion as a starting point for instructing them on the value of celibacy. In pouring this ointment on my body she has done it to prepare me for burial. Called into existence in this way, the woman is immediately recognized by the man as "flesh of his flesh and bone of his bones" (cf. [56] Cf. Within this fundamental truth about God the New Testament will reveal the inscrutable mystery of God's inner life. There exist still other forms of a vocation to virginity for the sake of the Kingdom; for example, the Secular Institutes, or the communities of consecrated persons which flourish within Movements, Groups and Associations. Each woman therefore is "the only creature on earth which God willed for its own sake". Their perfect incarnation is Jesus Christ himself. [58] Cf. Gen 1:27; 5:1). 2. If Mary is described also as the "new Eve", what are the meanings of this analogy? In this way "he loved them to the end" (Jn 13:1). III, 22, 4: S. Ch. This is also present in the great analogy of the "Bride" in the Letter to the Ephesians. These words certainly refer to the conception of her Son, who is the "Son of the Most High" (Lk1:32), the "holy one" of God; but they can also signify the discovery of her own feminine humanity. [39] Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World "Gaudium et spes," 24. [16] Already according to the Fathers of the Church the first revelation of the Trinity in the New Testament took place in the Annunciation. The particular union of the "Theotókos" with God - which fulfils in the most eminent manner the supernatural predestination to union with the Father which is granted to every human being (filii in Filio) - is a pure grace and, as such, a gift of the Spirit. Here one also finds an explanation for the calling of the "Twelve". Nevertheless, the renunciation of this kind of motherhood, a renunciation that can involve great sacrifice for a woman, makes possible a different kind of motherhood: motherhood "according to the Spirit" (cf. Consequently, even the rightful opposition of women to what is expressed in the biblical words "He shall rule over you" (Gen 3:16) must not under any condition lead to the "masculinization" of women. The woman with a stoop is called a "daughter of Abraham" (Lk 13:16), while in the whole Bible the title "son of Abraham" is used only of men. Man - whether man or woman - is the only being among the creatures of the visible world that God the Creator "has willed for its own sake"; that creature is thus a person. This sin, as already said, cannot be properly understood without reference to the mystery of the creation of the human being - man and woman - in the image and likeness of God. The Letter to the Ephesians once again confirms this truth, while at the same time comparing the spousal character of the love between man and woman to the mystery of Christ and of the Church. The women are the first at the tomb. [19] The whole Annunciation dialogue reveals the essential dimension of the event, namely, its supernatural dimension (***). The Bible convinces us of the fact that one can have no adequate hermeneutic of man, or of what is "human", without appropriate reference to what is "feminine". Since it is God's love, its spousal character is properly divine, even though it is expressed by the analogy of a man's love for a woman. Thus the "perfect woman" (cf. The "innovation" of Christ is a fact: it constitutes the unambiguous content of the evangelical message and is the result of the Redemption. Every vocation has a profoundly personal and prophetic meaning. Eph 2:18; 2 Pt 1:4)". Gina Warner and Annette Bergeon, Executive Director of Endow, sit down to discuss the feminine genius. This is a prelude to the definitive self-revelation of the Triune God: a living unity in the communion of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. haer." The Virgin of Nazareth truly becomes the Mother of God. They feel "liberated" by this truth, restored to themselves: they feel loved with "eternal love", with a love which finds direct expression in Christ himself. In the usual order of things motherhood is the result of mutual "knowledge" between a man and woman in the marriage union. And besides the many "unwed mothers" in our society, we also must consider all those who, as a result of various pressures, even on the part of the guilty man, very often "get rid of" the child before it is born. 153, 248-251; St. Cyril of Jerusalem, "Catech." Both receive his salvific and sanctifying "visits". The Eucharist is the Sacrament of our Redemption. Su pontificado de casi 27 años fue el tercero más largo en la historia de la Iglesia católica. Consequently, the assumption that he called men to be apostles in order to conform with the widespread mentality of his times, does not at all correspond to Christ's way of acting. Similarly one can understand the mystery of that "non-likeness" to God, who "alone is good" (cf. Christ is greeted as the bridegroom by John the Baptist (cf. In this way new light is also thrown on man's image and likeness to God, spoken of in the Book of Genesis. Motherhood has been introduced into the order of the Covenant that God made with humanity in Jesus Christ. We only understand it fully if we place the whole conversation between the Angel and Mary in the context of the words: "full of grace". III, 2, 78: PG 42, 728-729; St. Augustine, Enarr. Mai 1994 veröffentlichten Apostolischen Schreibens von Papst Johannes Paul II. These words, addressed directly to man, show the fundamental truth of his responsibility vis-a-vis woman: her dignity, her motherhood, her vocation. El texto de la "Mulieris Dignitatem" se mantiene en la línea de los grandes principios bíblico-teológicos. Eph 5:21). [35] As a rule, from this comparison there emerges at first sight a difference, a contrast. The last Synod took place within the Marian Year, which gives special thrust to the consideration of this theme, as the Encyclical Redemptoris Mater points out. This tendency is expressed in a threefold concupiscence, which Saint John defines as the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life (cf. [36] Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World "Gaudium et spes" 22. Jesus Christ - who called God "Abba Father" (Mk 14: 36), and who as the only-begotten and consubstantial Son placed this truth at the very centre of his Gospel, thus establishing the norm of Christian prayer - referred to fatherhood in this ultra-corporeal, superhuman and completely divine sense. [33] It is precisely by appealing to the divine law that the Fathers of the fourth century strongly react against the discrimination still in effect with regard to women in the customs and the civil legislation of their time. Eph 1: 9) by which through Christ, the Word made flesh, man has access to the Father in the Holy Spirit and comes to share in the divine nature (cf. One cannot correctly understand virginity - a woman's consecration in virginity - without referring to spousal love. This concerns everyone in the Church, women as well as men. The "woman" of the Proto-evangelium fits into the perspective of the Redemption. On Easter Sunday night they receive the Holy Spirit for the forgiveness of sins: "Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained" (Jn 20:23). At the same time, man "cannot fully find himself except through a sincere gift of self". En la Mulieris dignitatem, Juan Pablo II profundizó las verdades antropológicas fundamentales del hombre y de la mujer, la igualdad en dignidad y la unidad de los dos, la diversidad arraigada y profunda entre lo masculino y lo femenino, y su vocación a la reciprocidad y a la complementariedad, a la colaboración y a la comunión (cf. Jn 3:27-29). On the one hand, this dignity consists in the supernatural elevation to union with God in Jesus Christ, which determines the ultimate finality of the existence of every person both on earth and in eternity. The Gospel helps every woman and every man to live it and thus attain fulfilment. One can say that this fully captures the whole "style" of Christ in dealing with women. Rev 12:1). Google+. This meaning becomes clearer for us from Christ's words and from his whole attitude towards women, an attitude which is extremely simple, and for this very reason extraordinary, if seen against the background of his time. - "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God... For with God nothing will be impossible" (cf. And holiness is measured according to the "great mystery" in which the Bride responds with the gift of love to the gift of the Bridegroom. Cf. 44, 7: PG 55, 193; St. John Damascene, "Hom. Jesus said to her: "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. The mother is filled with wonder at this mystery of life, and "understands" with unique intuition what is happening inside her. Then Jesus said: "This poor widow has put in more than all of them... she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had" (Lk 21:1-4). [48] The respective passages deserve a separate analysis. After all, was it not in and through her that the greatest event in human history - the incarnation of God himself - was accomplished? Even greater dismay, or even "holy indignation", must have filled the self-satisfied hearers of Christ's words: "the tax collectors and the harlots go into the Kingdom of God before you" (Mt 21:31). This masculine symbol represents the human aspect of the divine love which God has for Israel, for the Church, and for all people. They alone receive the sacramental charge, "Do this in remembrance of me" (Lk 22:19; 1 Cor 11:24), which is joined to the institution of the Eucharist. Here we find ourselves, in a sense, at the culminating point, the archetype, of the personal dignity of women. Prov. The inheritance of sin suggested by the words of the Bible - "Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you" - can be conquered only by following this path. Furthermore, this participation determines the organic unity of the Church, the People of God, with Christ. In this suffering a woman's sensitivity plays a role, even though she often succeeds in resisting suffering better than a man. 45, 74; St. Augustine,"Sermo" 192, 2: PL 38, 1012; "Sermo" 195, 2: PL 38, 1018; "Sermo" 25, 8: PL 46, 938; St. Leo the Great, "Sermo" 25, 5: PL 54, 211; "Sermo" 26, 2: PL 54, 213; St. Bede the Venerable, "In Lc" I, 2: PL 92, 330.

This is exactly what Paul of Tarsus does when he addresses the Galatians with the words: "My little children, with whom I am again in travail" (Gal 4:19). Indeed, once taught, she proclaims Christ to the inhabitants of Samaria, so that they too receive him with faith (cf. In this regard, the sisters of Lazarus also deserve special mention: "Jesus loved Martha and her sister (Mary) and Lazarus" (cf. In this sense too the woman's motherhood presents a special call and a special challenge to the man and to his fatherhood. Everything that has been said so far about Christ's attitude to women confirms and clarifies, in the Holy Spirit, the truth about the equality of man and woman. B.V.M. La dignité de la femme et sa vocation - objets constants de la réflexion humaine et chrétienne - ont pris ces dernières années un relief tout à fait particulier. Even though what is written in the Book of Genesis is expressed in the form of a symbolic narrative, as is the case in the description of the creation of man as male and female (cf. 24. This is clear and unambiguous when the sacramental ministry of the Eucharist, in which the priest acts "in persona Christi", is performed by a man. On the other hand, however, the event at Nazareth highlights a form of union with the living God which can only belong to the "woman", Mary: the union between mother and son. V, 33: PL 16, 313. el que fue compuesta la Mulieris Dignitatem. But the challenge presented by the "ethos" of the Redemption is clear and definitive. Jesus answers: "For your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so" (Mt 19: 8). While we see in this text an echo of the Infancy Narrative (cf. A particular key for understanding this can be found in the words which the Evangelist puts on Mary's lips after the Annunciation, during her visit to Elizabeth: "He who is mighty has done great things for me" (Lk 1:49). We find ourselves at the very heart of the Paschal Mystery, which completely reveals the spousal love of God. Gen 2:23) and for this very reason she is called "woman". Introduction. Análisis de la carta papal Mulieris Dignitatem a partir de la perspectiva de la teología feminista Ana Ruth Chinchilla Castillo* rESumEn El artículo propone un análisis de la Carta Mulieris Dignitatem, a partir de la teología feminista, particularmente desde el modelo kyriarcal que propone Elizabeth Shüssler. The covenant proper to spouses "explains" the spousal character of the union of Christ with the Church, and in its turn this union, as a "great sacrament", determines the sacramentality of marriage as a holy covenant between the two spouses, man and woman. First we see those women who had personally encountered Christ and followed him. It must also be said that this is especially confirmed in the Paschal Mystery, not only at the Cross but also at the dawn of the Resurrection. Heb 10:5, 7). Fundamental to this is Jesus' statement in the conversation on the indissolubility of marriage. The image and likeness of God in man, created as man and woman (in the analogy that can be presumed between Creator and creature), thus also expresses the "unity of the two" in a common humanity. 19. It is only by beginning from these bases, which make it possible to understand the greatness of the dignity and vocation of women, that one is able to speak of their active presence in the Church and in society. He also "knew what was in man" (Jn 2:25), in his innermost being, in his "heart". The present reflections, now at an end, have sought to recognize, within the "gift of God", what he, as Creator and Redeemer, entrusts to women, to every woman. At the same time, however, as the author of the evil of sin, the human being - man and woman - is affected by it. In the light of the "beginning", the mother accepts and loves as a person the child she is carrying in her womb. Our reflection returns to the biblical exemplar of the "woman" in the Proto-evangelium. [24] From the very beginning, both are persons, unlike the other living beings in the world about them. At the same time, in this Church, which in the same passage is also called his "body" (cf. Christ is the Bridegroom. However, to make his Covenant with humanity, he addressed himself only to men: Noah, Abraham, and Moses. 12. Mulieres dignitatem apostolicletter of the Supreme Pontiff John Paul II on the dignity & vocation of women on the occasion of the Marian Year. Gen 1:27; 2:24) shows that the whole "ethos" of mutual relations between men and women has to correspond to the personal truth of their being. C e « document », qui se veut une « méditation », est plutôt la transformation de fond en comble de l'édifice bâti par les siècles sur le fondement des Apôtres et des martyrs en l'honneur et pour le culte de Notre-Seigneur Jésus-Christ, le Fils de Dieu fait homme, et de la bienheureuse et Immaculée Marie, toujours .

At the Annunciation Mary hears the words: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you" (Lk 1:35). It is also to be noted how the same Woman, who attains the position of a biblical "exemplar", also appears within the eschatological perspective of the world and of humanity given in the Book of Revelation [60] She is "a woman clothed with the sun", with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of stars (cf. in Ps. The child's upbringing, taken as a whole, should include the contribution of both parents: the maternal and paternal contribution. There is an analogy in God's salvific economy: if we wish to understand it fully in relation to the whole of human history, we cannot omit, in the perspective of our faith, the mystery of "woman": virgin-mother-spouse. [60] Cf. The first part of Christ's words refers to the "pangs of childbirth" which belong to the heritage of original sin; at the same time these words indicate the link that exists between the woman's motherhood and the Paschal Mystery. Gen 3:15). Christ, as the supreme and only priest of the New and Eternal Covenant, and as the Bridegroom of the Church, does not cease to submit this same inheritance to the Father through the Spirit, so that God may be "everything to everyone" (1 Cor 15:28).[62]. Particularly eloquent is the story of the widow's mite. [34] And since the redemption is to be accomplished through a struggle against evil - through the "enmity" between the offspring of the woman and the offspring of him who, as "the father of lies" (Jn 8:44), is the first author of sin in human history - it is also an enmity between him and the woman. In God's eternal plan, woman is the one in whom the order of love in the created world of persons takes first root. Love, which is of God, communicates itself to creatures: "God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us" (Rom 5:5). Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, Dogmatic Constitution on the Church "Lumen gentium," 63; St. Ambrose, In Lc II, 7: S. Ch. Eve, as "the mother of all the living" (Gen 3: 20), is the witness to the biblical "beginning", which contains the truth about the creation of man made in the image and likeness of God and the truth about original sin. THE DIGNITY AND THE VOCATION OF WOMEN - a subject of constant human and Christian reflection - have gained exceptional prominence in recent years. As in the conversation with the Pharisees (cf. Motherhood involves a special communion with the mystery of life, as it develops in the woman's womb. The person must be loved, since love alone corresponds to what the person is. In all of Jesus' teaching, as well as in his behaviour, one can find nothing which reflects the discrimination against women prevalent in his day. Although it is not possible to attribute human qualities to the eternal generation of the Word of God, and although the divine fatherhood does not possess "masculine" characteristics in a physical sense, we must nevertheless seek in God the absolute model of all "generation" among human beings. Lk 13:16), the dignity belonging to women from the very "beginning" on an equal footing with men. Address to the Cardinal and Prelates of the Roman Curia (December 22, 1987); "L'Osservatore Romano," December 23, 1987. I INTRODUCTION A sign of the times 1. Gen 1:26-27), we can understand even more fully what constitutes the personal character of the human being, thanks to which both man and woman are like God. This collective subject is the People of God, a community made up of many persons, both women and men. Jesus' attitude to the women whom he meets in the course of his Messianic service reflects the eternal plan of God, who, in creating each one of them, chooses her and loves her in Christ (cf. However, the awareness that in marriage there is mutual "subjection of the spouses out of reverence for Christ", and not just that of the wife to the husband, must gradually establish itself in hearts, consciences, behaviour and customs. Thus there begins the central event, the key event in the history of salvation: the Lord's Paschal Mystery. For this mystery also includes the Mother's sorrow at the foot of the Cross - the Mother who through faith shares in the amazing mystery of her Son's "self-emptying": "This is perhaps the deepest 'kenosis' of faith in human history".[40]. Rom 8: 29),namely, among the faithful. Christ speaks to women about the things of God, and they understand them; there is a true resonance of mind and heart, a response of faith. He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will" (Eph 1:4-6). Col 3:18; 1 Pt 3:1-6; Tit 2:4-5; Eph 5:22-24; 1 Cor 11:3-16; 14:33-35; 1 Tim 2:11-15. In this way there is a confirmation of the profound union between what is human and what constitutes the divine economy of salvation in human history. This applies to every human being, whether woman or man, who live it out in accordance with the special qualities proper to each. John Paul II, Wednesday General Audience Addresses, April 7 and 21, 1982: "Insegnamenti" V, 1, (1982), 1126-1131 and 1175-1179. Let us enter into the setting of the biblical "beginning". Since the human being - man and woman - has been created in God's image and likeness, God can speak about himself through the lips of the Prophet using language which is essentially human. In biblical language this name indicates her essential identity with regard to man - 'is-'issah - something which unfortunately modern languages in general are unable to express: "She shall be called woman ('issah) because she was taken out of man ('is)": Gen 2:23. Has no one condemned you?". Mt 19:17) and-the fullness of good. [12] Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World "Gaudium et spes," 22. Normally a woman's conscience does not let her forget that she has taken the life of her own child, for she cannot destroy that readiness to accept life which marks her "ethos" from the "beginning". This also explains the primacy of love expressed by Saint Paul in the First Letter to the Corinthians: "the greatest of these is love" (cf. Only "those to whom it is given" understand it (Mt 19:11). 1 Jn 2:16). Gen 3:19). We find various passages in which the apostolic writings express this innovation, even though they also communicate what is "old": what is rooted in the religious tradition of Israel, in its way of understanding and explaining the sacred texts, as for example the second chapter of the Book of Genesis.[49]. Certainly that tradition was connected in some way with Israel's expectation of the Messiah's coming, especially among the women of Israel from whom he was to be born. Let us recall at this point the words of the Second Vatican Council: "People look to the various religions for answers to those profound mysteries of the human condition which, today, even as in olden times, deeply stir the human heart: What is a human being? Chapter I - Introduction The letter was written for two reasons: 1. But the fullest expression of the truth about Christ the Redeemer's love, according to the analogy of spousal love in marriage, is found in the Letter to the Ephesians: "Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her" (5:25), thereby fully confirming the fact that the Church is the bride of Christ: "The Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer" (Is 54:5). It shows the perspective of "toil", by which man will earn his living (cf.
