PRAYER: BEGINNINGS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT – CATHOLIC CATECHISM

In the Old Testament, the revelation of prayer comes between the fall and the restoration of Adam and Eve, that is, between God's sorrowful call to his first children: "Where are you? . . . What is this that you have done?" and the response of God's only Son on coming into the world: "Lo, I have come to do your will, O God." Prayer is bound up with human history, for it is the relationship with God in historical events. Creation - source of prayer Prayer is lived in the first place beginning with the realities of creation. the first nine chapters of Genesis describe this relationship with God as an offering of the first-born of Abel's flock, as the invocation of the divine name at the time of Enoch, and as "walking with God. Noah's offering is pleasing to God, who blesses him and through him all creation, because his heart was upright and undivided; Noah, like Enoch before him, "walks with God." This kind of prayer is lived by many righteous people in all religions. In his indefectible covenant with every living creature, God has always called people to prayer. But it is above all beginning with our father Abraham that prayer is revealed in the Old Testament. God's promise and the prayer of Faith When God calls him, Abraham goes forth "as the Lord had told him"; Abraham's heart is entirely submissive to the Word and so he obeys. Such attentiveness of the heart, whose decisions are made according to God's will, is essential to prayer, while the words used count only in relation to it. Abraham's prayer is expressed first by deeds: a man of silence, he constructs an altar to the Lord at each stage of his journey. Only later does Abraham's first prayer in words appear: a veiled complaint reminding God of his promises which seem unfulfilled. Thus one aspect of the drama of prayer appears from the beginning: the test of faith in the fidelity of God.

LA ORACIÓN EN LA VIDA CRISTIANA: EL ANTIGUO TESTAMENTO – CATECISMO

CATOLICO La revelación de la oración en el Antiguo Testamento se encuadra entre la caída y la elevación de Adán y Eva, entre la llamada dolorosa de Dios a sus primeros hijos: “¿Dónde estás? [...] ¿Por qué lo has hecho?” (Gn 3, 9. 13) y la respuesta del Hijo único al entrar en el mundo: “He aquí que vengo [...] a hacer, oh Dios, tu voluntad” (Hb 10, 7; cf. Hb 10, 5-7). De este modo, la oración está ligada con la historia de los hombres; es la relación con Dios en los acontecimientos de la historia humana. La creación, fuente de la oración La oración se vive primeramente a partir de las realidades de la creación. Los nueve primeros capítulos del Génesis describen esta relación con Dios como ofrenda por Abel de los primogénitos de su rebaño (cf Gn 4, 4), como invocación del nombre divino por Enós (cf Gn 4, 26), como “marcha con Dios” (Gn 5, 24). La ofrenda de Noé es “agradable” a Dios que le bendice y, a través de él, bendice a toda la creación (cf Gn 8, 20-9, 17), porque su corazón es justo e íntegro; él también “marcha con Dios” (Gn 6, 9). Este carácter de la oración ha sido vivido en todas las religiones, por una muchedumbre de hombres piadosos. En su alianza indefectible con todos los seres vivientes (cf Gn 9, 8-16), Dios llama siempre a los hombres a orar. Pero, en el Antiguo Testamento, la oración se revela sobre todo a partir de nuestro padre Abraham. La Promesa y la oración de la fe Cuando Dios lo llama, Abraham se pone en camino “como se lo había dicho el Señor” (Gn 12, 4): todo su corazón “se somete a la Palabra” y obedece. La escucha del corazón a Dios que llama es esencial a la oración, las palabras tienen un valor relativo. Por eso, la oración de Abraham se expresa primeramente con hechos: hombre de silencio, en cada etapa construye un altar al Señor. Solamente más tarde aparece su primera oración con palabras: una queja velada recordando a Dios sus promesas que no parecen cumplirse (cf Gn 15, 2-3). De este modo surge desde los comienzos uno de los aspectos de la tensión dramática de la oración: la prueba de la fe en Dios que es fiel.
