Abstract
El artículo propone una visión general del concepto teológico de misericordia en el pensamiento de Hans Urs von Balthasar. En una primera parte se expone la centralidad del tema del amor en este pensamiento, y el lugar de la misericordia en él. En una segunda parte se proponen tres rasgos de la perspectiva teológica sobre la misericordia de Dios en la teología de Hans Urs von Balthasar, para indicar solamente los puntos de fuga de su perspectiva, no el contenido de todo el cuadro, pues la extensión y la profundidad de este pensamiento son muy grandes. Como es característico del teólogo suizo, se da la palabra a la Escritura y a la Tradición para recoger los elementos esenciales, que son: amor y misericordia en la creación, el pro nobis del Credo eclesial y la posición de la misericordia entre los atributos divinos. En un párrafo conclusivo se considera la fecundidad de la misericordia divina en las “entrañas de misericordia” que caracterizan al cristiano.
Summary: This article offers a general overview of the theological concept of mercy in the thought of Hans Urs von Balthasar. The first part expounds the central theme of love in his thought, and the place of mercy within it. The second part proposes three features of the theological perspective of God's mercy with the theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar, in order to indicate merely the vanishing points of his perspective, and not the content of the whole picture, since the extent and the depth of his thought is so great. As is characteristic of the Swiss theologian, Scripture and Tradition are given voice to catch up the essential elements, which are: love and mercy in creation, the pro nobis of the ecclesial Creed, and the place of mercy within the divine attributes. The concluding paragraph considers the fecundity of divine mercy in the “entrails of mercy" that characterize the Christian.
