To this effect, the position of God as a -basic- lawgiver is expounded, with special attention to the role His power plays. By means of an account of the grounds given (in the Bible) to obey God, the selfish motives in this respect are brought to light. It is questioned whether any other elements can be discerned, particularly from a meta-ethical perspective. Este artículo discute cuáles son las razones decisivas para actuar de acuerdo con los comandos divinos, y si estas pueden entenderse como razones morales: el énfasis descansa en la Cristiandad. Para ello, se expone la posición de Dios como un –básico– legislador, atendiendo particularmente al rol que ocupa su poder. Al analizar los fundamentos dados en la Biblia para obedecer a Dios, se traen a la luz los motivos egoístas a este respecto. Así, se pone en cuestión si otros elementos pueden discernirse, particularmente desde una perspectiva meta-ética. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7774 eng Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7774/6840 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 33 (2012); 3-15 2683-9636 Dios como legislador comandos divinos razones morales obediencia a Dios meta-ética God as law-giver divine commands moral reasons obedience to God meta-ethics Commanding and Obeying info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7774_oai
