Esta trabalho procura dar o desenvolvimento histórico, teológico e pastoral do matrimónio, mostrando como a Igreja foi compreendendo e aprofundando esta realidade fundamental para a vida cristã e social. Partindo da Sagrada Escritura, apresenta-se a conceção original do matrimónio como projeto de Deus na criação. Aqui mostra como a união entre homem e mulher, é chamada à fidelidade, à indissolubilidade e à fecundidade. No Antigo Testamento, o matrimónio é descrito para mostrar a aliança entre Deus e o seu povo, aliança que frequentemente é quebrada pela infidelidade humana, mas continuamente renovada pela misericórdia divina. No Novo Testamento, Cristo eleva esta união à dignidade de sacramento, refletindo a relação entre Cristo e a Igreja. As primeiras comunidades cristãs passam a viver o matrimónio como caminho de santificação e testemunho da fé. A reflexão patrística, com destaque para Santo Agostinho, identifica no matrimónio três bens fundamentais a prole, a fidelidade e o sacramento, os quais S. Agostinho articula-os com a virgindade e a viuvez como diferentes caminhos de santidade. Na escolástica S. Tomás de Aquino, integrando a tradição e a filosofia aristotélica, sistematiza o matrimónio como instituição natural e sacramento, sublinhando o seu valor teológico. A partir do Concílio de Trento, em resposta à Reforma protestante, a Igreja reafirma a sacramentalidade e indissolubilidade do matrimónio, estabelecendo normas disciplinares que marcam séculos de prática eclesial. Com a modernidade, a secularização e a introdução do divórcio pelo Estado geraram novas tensões entre doutrina e sociedade. O Concílio Vaticano II representou um marco decisivo ao reler o matrimónio e a família à luz da dignidade humana, da comunhão de vida e do amor conjugal, propondo uma visão aberta ao diálogo com o mundo contemporâneo. Documentos como Gaudium et Spes e o Catecismo da Igreja Católica, bem como o Direito Canónico e o Compêndio da Doutrina Social da Igreja, reforçam esta compreensão. Por fim, ao analisar os contributos dos Papas, o que ficamos pela análise da Exortação Apostólica Amoris Laetitia do Papa Francisco, a qual atualiza e integra este percurso, oferecendo uma leitura catequética e pastoral. A Exortação Apóstolica Amoris Laetitia reafirma a beleza do matrimónio cristão, mas também reconhece as dificuldades atuais, propondo acompanhamento, discernimento e espiritualidade familiar. Assim, a dissertação evidencia como a Igreja, fiel à Palavra e à Tradição, procura responder aos desafios do tempo, apresentando o matrimónio como sacramento de amor, sinal da aliança divina e fundamento da vida social e eclesial.
This dissertation seeks to present the historical, theological, and pastoral development of marriage, showing how the Church has come to understand and deepen this fundamental reality for Christian and social life. Beginning with Sacred Scripture, it sets out the original conception of marriage as God’s plan in creation, where the union between man and woman is called to fidelity, indissolubility, and fruitfulness. In the Old Testament, marriage is described as a reflection of the covenant between God and his people, a covenant frequently broken by human unfaithfulness but continually renewed by divine mercy. In the New Testament, Christ elevates this union to the dignity of a sacrament, reflecting the relationship between Christ and the Church. The first Christian communities embraced marriage as a path to sanctification and a witness of faith.<br/>Patristic reflection, particularly in Augustine, identifies three essential goods of marriage — offspring, fidelity, and sacrament — which he relates to virginity and widowhood as distinct ways of holiness. In the scholastic tradition, Thomas Aquinas, integrating both tradition and Aristotelian philosophy, systematizes marriage as a natural institution and a sacrament, underlining its theological significance. From the Council of Trent onwards, in response to the Protestant Reformation, the Church reaffirmed the sacramentality and indissolubility of marriage, establishing disciplinary norms that shaped centuries of ecclesial practice. With modernity, secularization and the introduction of divorce by the State created new tensions between doctrine and society. The Second Vatican Council marked a decisive turning point by rereading marriage and the family in the light of human dignity, communion of life, and conjugal love, proposing a vision open to dialogue with the contemporary world. Documents such as Gaudium et Spes and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, as well as Canon Law and the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, reinforced this understanding.<br/>Finally, when examining the contributions of the Popes, particular attention is given to Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia, which updates and integrates this trajectory by offering a catechetical and pastoral reading. Amoris Laetitia reaffirms the beauty of Christian marriage but also recognizes present challenges, proposing accompaniment, discernment, and family spirituality. Thus, the dissertation shows how the Church, faithful to Scripture and Tradition, seeks to respond to the challenges of the time, presenting marriage as a sacrament of love, a sign of the divine covenant, and a foundation of both social and ecclesial life.
