Description
Summary:It has been the book Patience with God. Close to the distant ones of the Czech writer Tomáš Halík who aroused our interest in studying this subject in Saint Augustine. As the phrase 'patience with God' does not appear explicitly in the Augustinian work, the first part of the study, of a philological nature, has allowed us to notice the hidden idea under the sustine Dominum recommendation of Ps 26/27,14. From there, the study focuses on the eleven texts in which the preacher of Hippo comments on or simply resorts to that verse of the psalm. Patience with God is specifically recommended for two categories of people: the lovers and the long-suffering, who, for different reasons bear the weight of impatience. Then, in two separate sections, are analyzed the respective causes of impatience and the reasons that justify the invitation to be patient with the Lord, adduced by the saint. In a brief conclusion, convergences and divergences are pointed out between the approach of the Bishop of Hippo and that of the Czech author.
