Resumo: | The article sets out to reflect about the concept of blessing in Ancient Israel, having as a framework the book of Deuteronomy. In the actual social and religious environment, blessing is something very much used. We could even say that it is something that is “in fashion”. In some contexts blessings are asked and given everywhere, sometimes freely but sometimes in exchange for material goods. Has this anything to do with the original sense of the blessing in the narratives of the Old Testament? The Deuteronomic blessing shows the liberality and generosity of God and it is portrayed by a strong social dimension. What can we learn from it that may enrich nowadays our Christian social commitment? |

En la ambiente religioso y espiritual del hoy, la bendición es algo muy usado; se podría incluso decir que está “de moda”. En algunos contextos se piden y se otorgan bendiciones por doquier, en ocasiones gratuitamente pero en ocasiones también a cambio de bienes materiales. ¿Qué tiene que ver esto con el sentido original de la bendición en las narraciones del Antiguo Testamento?

No ambiente religioso e espiritual de hoje, a bênção é algo muito usada, poder-se-ia inclusive dizer que está “na moda”. Em alguns contextos, pedem-se e se outorgam bênçãos em abundância, em ocasiões gratuitamente, mas em ocasiões também em troca de bens materiais. O que isto tem a ver com o sentido original da bênção nas narrativas do Antigo Testamento? A bênção deuteronômica manifesta a gratuidade de Deus e se caracteriza por uma forte dimensão social.
