Within the Christian tradition, bridal theology, also referred to as mystical marriage, is the New Testament portrayal of communion with Jesus as a marriage, and God's reign as a wedding banquet. This tradition in turn traces back to the Hebrew Bible, especially allegorical interpretations of the erotic Song of Songs (or Song of Solomon). Bridal theology has influenced the works of, among others, Henry Suso, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Ávila, Gregory the Great and Bernard of Clairvaux.

  • Within the Christian tradition, bridal theology, also referred to as mystical marriage, is the New Testament portrayal of communion with Jesus as a marriage, and God's reign as a wedding banquet. This tradition in turn traces back to the Hebrew Bible, especially allegorical interpretations of the erotic Song of Songs (or Song of Solomon). In Christianity, bridal theology plays a role in the lives of those who become Catholic, Lutheran and Anglican nuns and religious sisters; for this reason, nuns and religious sisters are often termed "brides of Christ" for this reason. Additionally, those who dedicate their lives as consecrated virgins live as a "spouse of Christ", spending their lives devoted to serving in the local church and praying for all the faithful (being gifted a breviary after undergoing the rite). Expanding on this, in The Harvard Ichthus, Jane Thomas explained that in a sense, all Christian women are brides of Christ: Just as these Sisters are the brides of Christ, so too is every married woman (whether she sees it or not), for just as Jesus dwells in school children, so too does he dwell in the husband of a married woman. In this way, she too is married to Christ. Paul’s instruction, “Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord” (Ep 5:22), is more than just a metaphor meant to illustrate a degree of submission. Rather, he is describing a spiritual reality, contingent on Christ’s indwelling in the husband. And who is the person to whom the wife submits? A man who loved his bride the church so much that he died for her sake. ... If I am called to marriage, then I am called to love Jesus and minister to Jesus by pouring out my love to one man, my husband. When I make him laugh, when I bring him joy, when I love him even at his worst, I am doing these things to Jesus. Bridal theology has influenced the works of, among others, Henry Suso, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Ávila, Gregory the Great and Bernard of Clairvaux. (en)
  • Dentro de la tradición cristiana, la teología nupcial , también conocida como matrimonio místico es la representación del Nuevo Testamento de la comunión con Jesús como matrimonio, y el reinado de Dios como un banquete de bodas​ Esta tradición a su vez se remonta al Antiguo Testamento.​ Esta teología ha influido en las obras de Catalina de Siena , Teresa de Ávila , Gregorio Magno y Bernardo de Claraval . Un concepto similar existía en el gnosticismo valentiniano con la noción de la cámara nupcial, que implicaba un matrimonio con la contraparte celestial de uno​​ Algunos místicos toman este 'matrimonio' como un símbolo de la unión con Dios y, por lo tanto, no se agudizan las connotaciones negativas para los pensadores ortodoxos. En un culto, originado en los años 60, que se conoce como La Familia Internacional, se enseña una forma particularmente radical de teología nupcial: se alienta a los miembros del grupo de ambos sexos a masturbarse mientras se visualizan como mujeres que tienen sexo con Jesús. Esto se conoce dentro del culto como la "revelación amorosa de Jesús"; sin embargo, no refleja con exactitud las concepciones de la corriente principal de la teología nupcial, y no se acepta más allá del culto de su origen.​ (es)
