This paper illustrates how a revised understanding of Rahner’s starting point in determining the nature of the priesthood leads to a context-based model of the priesthood: that the Asian priest is best described as ‘man of the Word’. The peculiar situation of Asia calls for this model. Hence, there is a need to understand, too, the concrete situation of Asia. Rahner’s theology of the Church and of the priesthood serves as the initial impetus for articulating an alternative understanding of the priesthood in Asia. The communion and the cultic models have already received due emphasis; but the prophetic model has been neglected thus far. This paper proposes the alternative model of the priest as ‘man of the Word’. He is a man of the dialogical, prophetic and Spirit-borne Word. In the multi-cultural, multi-religious and largely poor Asian setting, this model of the priesthood is what is most appropriate, even necessary. Once recognized and accepted, this revisionist understanding of the priesthood should shape the formation of future priests whose task it is to be preachers of the Word, ministers of the sacraments, and shepherd of God’s people.
Abstract
This paper illustrates how a revised understanding of Rahner’s starting point in determining the nature of the priesthood leads to a context-based model of the priesthood: that the Asian priest is best described as ‘man of the Word’. The peculiar situation of Asia calls for this model. Hence, there is a need to understand, too, the concrete situation of Asia. Rahner’s theology of the Church and of the priesthood serves as the initial impetus for articulating an alternative understanding of the priesthood in Asia. The communion and the cultic models have already received due emphasis; but the prophetic model has been neglected thus far. This paper proposes the alternative model of the priest as ‘man of the Word’. He is a man of the dialogical, prophetic and Spirit-borne Word. In the multi-cultural, multi-religious and largely poor Asian setting, this model of the priesthood is what is most appropriate, even necessary. Once recognized and accepted, this revisionist understanding of the priesthood should shape the formation of future priests whose task it is to be preachers of the Word, ministers of the sacraments, and shepherd of God’s people.
