Resumen
Summary: The theme of the conformity of man’s will to God’s will is somewhat neglected in current theological scholarship. Although it could seem like an exclusively spiritual theme, this article will show that throughout history it was also a genuinely moral issue. The article approaches the question first in Matthew’s Gospel. This brief yet important biblical study prepares the ground for a study of the theme in some Patristic and Medieval authors.
Key Words: conformity, Will of God, Will of the Father, obedience, self-abandonment to divine will.
Parole chiave: conformità, Volontà di Dio, Volontà del Padre, obbedienza, abbandono alla Volontà divina.
