BYINGTON, Carlos Amadeu B.. The death and resurrection of the Messiah: The Shadow, the Evil and the Antichrist. A study of the ethical function, by Jungian Symbolic Psychology. Junguiana [online]. 2019, vol.37, n.1, pp. 241-249. ISSN 0103-0825.

The article conceives the archetype of shadow as the archetype of evil in Jungian Symbolic Psychology and tries to interpret it as an expression of the central archetype (Self) side by side with the archetype of good. Jung's interpretation of Jehovah's limitation in the relationship with Job is followed by the recognition of the patriarchal sadism within the Godhead which needs the sacrifice of the Son to be transformed in the God of compassion and understanding because only so will it become the Trinity capable of expressing the archetype of alterity. In conclusion, the author follows Jung in the interpretation of the Apocalypse as the shadow of the New Testament and calls attention for Jesus' shadow expressed in His name as symbol of the integration of the Anti-Christ in the myth. ■

Palabras clave : antichrist; shadow and evil archetype; death; resurrection; patriarchal god; holy trinity; god of alterity.
