Éleos è misericordia — la bontà di Dio verso chi non la merita e la bontà che chiede ai suoi a sua volta. È una delle grandi parole del vangelo.

Risposta rapida tradotta con l'aiuto dell'IA e in revisione. La spiegazione completa è mostrata in inglese.

Eleos is mercy — kindness shown to those who could not claim it. The New Testament rings with it: God is “rich in mercy,” saved us “according to his great mercy,” calls us to be merciful as our Father is merciful.

Eleos meets people where they are weakest and lifts them. Jesus’ healings and the parable of the Good Samaritan both showcase it. Receiving mercy and giving it are two sides of the same gospel.
