Abstract(s)
O artigo pretende evidenciar os alicerces fundamentais e constitutivos do povo de Deus recorrendo, para o efeito, à revelação de Deus expressa no livro do Génesis, concretamente aos relatos de Abraão, de Jacob e de José. Nesse sentido, começamos por distinguir o povo de Deus a partir do evento fundacional que lhe deu origem e que lhe imprimiu e imprime a sua dinâmica de vida. Na realidade, esse evento fundacional
será decisivo e estará presente ao longo dos relatos de Abraão, Jacob e José, os quais formam modelos de resposta próprios à vocação única do povo de Deus, seja pela obediência de Abraão a Deus, seja pela abertura de Jacob à providência divina, seja pela sabedoria assumida por José, filho de Jacob.
This article seeks to provide evidence for the essential and characteristic foundations underlying God’s people, making use, to this end, of God’s revelation expressed in the book of Genesis, specifically in relation to what Abraham, Jacob and Joseph tell us. With this in mind, we begin by distinguishing God’s people from the founding event that led to, set in motion and still maintains its life dynamic. In reality, this founding event proves to be decisive and present throughout the testimony of Abraham, Jacob and Joseph, who form their own models of response to the unique vocation of God’s people, whether it be through Abraham’s obedience of God, Jacob’s openness to divine providence, or the wisdom taken on by Joseph, son of Jacob.
