Résumé
--
"I knew Father Dominique Barthélemy, Dominican, as a remarkable critic of texts. I held him in great esteem for his capacity for work and the accuracy of his intuitions. [...] I only had a vague idea of his knowledge of biblical theology and I was not aware of his writings and teachings in this domain. [...] I am very happy to have the opportunity to read this manuscript in its entirety, which its publishers have finally decided to call 'Le Pauvre choisi comme Seigneur' to be published posthumously. It consists of conferences given by Father Dominique Barthélemy in the last years of his life to the Little Sisters of Jesus. [...] Reading these pages, one cannot but admire the author's exegetical knowledge, the subtlety of his interpretations, his incisive and rich expression. Starting with the preaching of God's reign by Jesus, he observes how, right from the start, this preaching was closely linked to poverty: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the Kingdom of God". He goes on to examine the different Christian approaches to poverty and riches, letting us understand step by step the contexts in which the gravity and force of this fundamental attitude appear in all clarity. Some classic texts on the poor as they appear in the New Testament, such as the passage about Lazarus and the rich man, 'Our father' and the Last Judgement, are subjected to a more profound analysis, as are chapters 5 and 11 of John's Gospel and the descent of New Jerusalem in the Book of Revelations."[Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini]"
