[EN] More than half a century ago P. Sainz Rodriguez alluded to the possible influence of Arias Mantano's De Arcano sermone on Fray Luis de León's De los Nombres de Cristo. Subsequently, F. Cantera and B. Rekers recognized said influence without adding new information in that respect. The present author analyses in detail both treatises and concludes that it is not possible to prove a literary dependency on Fray Luis's behalf regarding Arias Montano's work. Nevertheless, he sustains that one of the fundamental keys for understanding Fray Luis de León's treatise is the Christian Cabala which appeared among the Spanish converts in the 14th and 15th centuries and became very popular among the refined circles during the Renaissance. Fray Luis shares with many Hebrew scholars of the 16th century an idea of the Hebrew language and the names of God and techniques of exegesis which bring him nearer to the reasaning of the Christian cabalists. Many of the argurnents and exegesis of De los Nombres de Cristo can only be understood against this background.
[ES] Hace más de medio siglo que P. Sainz Rodríguez aludía al posible influjo del De arcano sermone de Arias Montano en De los nombres de Cristo de Fray Luis de León. Posteriormente F. Cantera y B. Rekers admitieron dicho influjo sin añadir nuevos datos. El autor analiza minuciosamente ambos tratados y concluye que no se puede probar una dependencia literaria de Fray Luis con relación a la obra de Arias Montano. No obstante, mantiene que una de las daves fundamentales para comprender el tratado de Fray Luis de León es la Cábala cristiana, que se inicia en los circulas de los conversos españoles de los siglos XIV y XV, y se pone de moda entre los espíritus cultivadas del Renacimiento. Fray Luis comparte con muchos hebraístas del siglo XVI una concepción de la lengua hebrea y de los nombres de Dios y unas técnicas exegéticas que le aproximan a los razonamientos de los cabalistas cristianos. Y sólo sobre este trasfondo se entienden muchos de los argumentos y exégesis de De los nombres de Cristo.
