Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The study examines the concept of hesed in the Hebrew biblical tradition, revealing its semantic depth beyond conventional translations and highlighting its relational and ethical character in the manifestation of divine and human love. The study addresses the diversity of scholarly interpretations, highlighting that “hesed” represents a combination of loyalty, love and kindness, reflecting not only divine attributes, but also principles governing human behavior in interpersonal relationships. The paper also explores the relationship between “hesed” and other biblical concepts, such as covenant and faithfulness, arguing that it plays an essential role in shaping the spiritual ethos of Judaism and in shaping relationships between the divine and the human. Thus, the study contributes to a nuanced understanding of how the Jewish religious tradition conceptualizes the fundamental virtues of love and devotion.
