Bóg błogosławi rodzinę. Analiza teologiczna Ps 128,4-6.

The article raises an issue of the meaning of a blessing in human’s life. For the blessing is a source of all the well-being and it influences the relationship between people. The Word of God serves its mission on Earth by completing Creator’s plan for the world and for human beings. All the nations will go to Syjon to pay homage to God who blesses them from above. It is a blessing which prolongs life, bestow children, who bring happiness and glory, on parents. God, like father, rises His children, like Jahwe shapes His Chosen Nation. For a child, according to the Old Testament, is the most beautiful gift from God to a man. Childlessness was found to be a disgrace and lack of the blessing. Peace according to the Bible does not mean only the calm life and the lack of wars. It means a well-being, a man’s harmony with all the nature, the God and a man-himself. It also means the proper relationship within the family. Such a meaning of a peace is a complete happiness given by God.
