wife - Opis:
- This article is an attempt to sketch out the Chrysostom’s ideal of a wife, on the basis of his homilies delivered in Antioch. In brief, this ideal should be understood as a realization of Christ’s commandment to love God and the neighbor. It is a call to the wife to undertake all necessary actions related to the material and spiritual sphere of a person, which serve not only the good of the individual, the family, but also the good of the society. So, according to Chrysostom’s ideal, the wife should, besides a broadly understood evangelization activity, perform also the function of a „guard of the home“, „guard of the state“, and be a teacher and educator. The realization of such outlined model of perfecting, undoubtedly conducive to many virtues that come into being, as well as assuming their development, requires furthermore a presence of the virtue of humility, modesty, fear of God, and faith in God’s Providence, as indispensable to its realizing; the virtues should be preceded by acquirement of a right hierarchy of values. In other words, the ideal of a wife, postulated by Chrysostom is, as it seems, a care about the, initiated in the sacrament of baptism, unity with God through unceasingly realized and deepened fidelity to Christ’s commandment of love god and neighbor.
