A partire dalla Lettera enciclica Laudato si’ di Papa Francesco, il presente contributo ha come scopo quello di approfondire la riflessione paolina sviluppata in Rm 8,18-30 relativamente alla sfida ecologica. In questa prospettiva tre i passaggi proposti: l’analisi dell’argomentazione offerta dall’apostolo nella pericope in oggetto; una riflessione sui risvolti che l’interpretazione complessa del lessema κτίσις offre per la comprensione dell’argomentazione paolina; le prospettive offerte dal testo per una riflessione teologica sulla relazione credenti-creazione, con uno specifico focus su Rm 8,18-22 dove il termine κτίσις concentra le sue ricorrenze.
Starting from Pope Francis's encyclical letter Laudato si’, this contribution analyses Paul’s reflections on the ecological challenge developed in Rom 8:18-30. Three steps are proposed: an analysis of the argument offered by the apostle in this text; a reflection on the implications that the complex interpretation of the lexeme κτίσις offers for understanding Paul’s argument; the perspectives offered by the text for a theological reflection on the relationship between believers and creation, with a specific focus on Rom 8:18-22, where the term κτίσις is most frequently used.
