Das Gebet Jesu in der Lehre vom Papst Benedikt XVI
Sosnowski, Aleksander (Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II & Towarzystwo Teologów Dogmatyków, 2018)
The reflection of Benedict XVI about Jesus’ prayer constitutes a significant element of the Pope’s teachings. All four Evangelists, especially Saint Luke, give us a testimony of Jesus’ prayer. It is undoubtedly one of the most important characteristics of Jesus in the New Testament: it characterizes Jesus from his childhood up until his last words on the cross. Analyzing the Bible’s testimony Benedict XVI underlines that Jesus’ prayer, and his dialogue with his Father constitute the essence of him himself and his mission. The most important works of Jesus originate from it, and Jesus’ prayer in the garden of Gethsemane and “yes” said to the Father precede His passion, death and resurrection. Prayer is a privileged place for Christology, in it and thanks to it, we can recognize Jesus as the true Messiah, the Son of God as the disciples did. Therefore, prayer is undoubtedly the key to Christology of Joseph Ratzinger, Benedict XVI and the key to Christology in general.
