FEMEIA VĂDUVĂ CA TOPOS BIBLIC-METAFORĂ A CONDIȚIEI UMANE ÎNTRE REALITATEA SOCIALĂ A VEACULUI ȘI REALITATEA TEOLOGICĂ A VEȘNICIEI
THE WIDOW, AS BIBLICAL TOPOS-A METAPHORE OF HUMAN CONDITION AMONG THE SOCIAL REALITY OF THE CENTURY AND THE THEOLOGIC REALITY OF ETERNITY

Summary/Abstract: Widowhood is therefore characteristic for all men, we are all guided into admitting our feeble-mindedness, into abstaining similarly to Anna, to spend time in prayers and fasting (Lc 2,36-37) and to consider heavenly Father as our protector. As such, in the biblical conscience, understanding widowhood as a spiritual status becomes defining for the condition of man spending time in this world, but also as a calling to a superior life, as a passage from ancient Israel, deprived of God’s presence, towards new Israel – the bride of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
