La Teología del descanso una mirada del creyente para vivirla en medio de la comunidad

Abstract

Throughout history, the community has understood rest as just standing still without doing or sleeping, but the rest thought from the culture of the Jewish people is the space for the encounter with God, to revitalize, to dignify the person , to humanize the community and the space of transcendence, of the fullness of the human being. And already happening to the present is the favorite space of the person, in which the rest for his daily work to have that space that revitalizes, animates, dignifies and humanizes him; but not only this, but rest is very associated with death, at the end of existence. This thesis shows that rest can be seen as a theological place since God is the answer to the rest of humanity since this that represents rest is what God promises to the human being. Thus, rest is the space of encounter with God, which fulfills man to continue the construction of the Kingdom, and encourages him in his work, humanizing it, dignifying it, and without forgetting the idea of eternal life, in which rest is given eternal, it is the space of encounter with God. Rest is the reason for work, it is the hopeful view of our life, we work to reach rest.
