"Upanje ne osramoti" (Rim 5,5) Pavlov koncept upanja v Rim 5-8 kot temelj krščanskega bivanja "Hope Does Not Disappoint" (Rom 5:5) Paul’s concept of hope in Romans 5–8 as the foundation of Christian existence Članek obravnava Pavlov koncept upanja v Rim 5–8 v kontekstu njegovega starozaveznega ozadja in poznejše recepcije pri Avguštinu. V prvem delu analizira pomen hebrejske Biblije za oblikovanje Pavlovega razumevanja upanja ter pokaže, da je upanje v svetopisemskem izročilu tesno povezano z zaupanjem v Božjo zvestobo in odrešenjsko delovanje. V osrednjem delu raziskava pokaže, da Pavel upanja ne razume zgolj kot pričakovanja prihodnjih dobrin, temveč kot temeljno razsežnost krščanskega bivanja, ki povezuje opravičenje po veri, izkušnjo Božje ljubezni in pričakovanje prihodnje slave. Posebna po-zornost je namenjena trditvi, da »upanje ne osramoti« (Rim 5,5), ker je utemeljeno v Božji ljubezni, izliti v srca verujočih po Svetem Duhu. Analiza pokaže, da upanje pri Pavlu pove-zuje preteklost Kristusovega odrešilnega dejanja, sedanjost življenja po Duhu in prihodnost dokončnega odrešenja. V drugem delu članek obravnava Avguštinovo recepcijo Pavlove teologije upanja. Čeprav Avguštin upanje sistematično umesti med teološke kreposti, ohrani njegovo temeljno eshatološko strukturo, ki jo izrazi z razlikovanjem med inre in in spe. Članek ugotavlja, da Avguštin Pavlovega pojmovanja upanja ne opusti, temveč ga razvije in posreduje nadaljnji krščanski tradiciji. This article examines Paul's concept of hope in Romans 5–8 in the context of its Old Testament background and its later reception in Augustine. The first part analyzes the significance of the Hebrew Bible for the formation of Paul's understanding of hope and demonstrates that, within the biblical tradition, hope is closely connected with trust in God's faithfulness and saving action. The central part of the study argues that Paul does not understand hope merely as the expectation of future goods, but as a fundamental dimen-sion of Christian existence that unites justification by faith, the experience of God's love, and the expectation of future glory. Particular attention is given to Paul's claim that “hope does not disappoint” (Rom 5:5), because it is grounded in the love of God poured into the hearts of believers through the Holy Spirit. The analysis shows that, in Paul's theology, hope links the past event of Christ's redemptive work, the present life in the Spirit, and the future fulfillment of salvation. The second part of the article investigates Augustine's reception of Pauline theology of hope. Although Augustine systematically situates hope among the theological vir-tues, he preserves its fundamental eschatological structure, expressed through the distinction between in re and in spe. The study concludes that Augustine does not abandon Paul's understanding of hope but rather develops it and mediates it to the subsequent Christian tradition. upanje (elpis spes) apostol Pavel Pismo Rimljanom opravičenje Sveti Duh Božja slava eshatologija dobro (bonum) hope (elpis spes) Romans justification Holy Spirit Divine Glory eschatological salvation good (bonum) true false true Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2026-11-05 12:18:54 2026-11-05 12:19:04 2026-11-06 04:29:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 Str. 213-237 št. 1 Letn. 81 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2026-07-15 27-277-248.42 2335-4127 10.34291/Edinost/81/01/Matjaz 285530371 261025_teoful_ED2026-1_11-Matjaz,Maksimilijan_web.pdf 261025_teoful_ED2026-1_11-Matjaz,Maksimilijan_web.pdf 1 1BC2BF25C8DF003424BE8E9F9CAA9504 fa588800bfe5b882891c58e7a005d835a7ee2a6cb874d578d0ad9689fd7838ba 7fba170f-d90b-11f1-aea2-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=252554 https://journals.uni-lj.si/ED/article/view/28512 1 a332ae13-d90a-11f1-aea2-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=252547 https://journals.uni-lj.si/ED/article/view/28512/21429 1 a3a154b9-d90a-11f1-aea2-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=252548 Teološka fakulteta Edinost in dialog 0 0 0
