Resumen

Contextualización: Este artículo afirma que, de hecho, basado en una reconstrucción conceptual de la noción de "sepa-ración de poderes", este trabajo defiende la tesis de que las Escrituras atribuyen a los jueces la fun-ción de alentar a las autoridades políticas a comportarse de manera virtuosa para proteger los dere-chos e intereses de los individuos.

Objetivo: El objetivo es sostener que la Biblia fundamenta el principio de la separación de poderes y atribuye a los jueces la función de alentar a las autoridades políticas a comportarse de manera virtuosa, con el fin de proteger los derechos e intereses del pueblo.

Método: El artículo utiliza un método deductivo para reconstruir la noción de "separación de poderes" a partir de las Escrituras, discutiendo las concepciones de la separación de poderes y analizando ejemplos bíblicos que sustentan esta tesis.

Resultados: Las conclusiones presentadas en este artículo son relevantes para apoyar una concepción que incen-tiva a los jueces a desempeñar un papel catalizador, para que las autoridades políticas protejan efec-tivamente los derechos e intereses de las personas a través de la creación de leyes y la formulación de políticas públicas.
