Abstract
This work aims to analyze Abraham's anguish in the religious perspective in Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855). For the development of this work on Abraham's anguish, it was necessary to use Fear and Trembling (1843) as the main work, and The Concept of Anxiety (1844) as a secondary work. Kierkegaardian anguish is understood as a feeling inherent in human existence. Nevertheless, Kierkegaard understands that the relationship between anguish and faith enables a certain human authenticity. Thus, the patriarch Abraham is the representative figure of the authentic individual who realizes the absolute relationship with the Absolute. This is because Abraham is the knight of faith, the one who allows himself to be guided by the infinite, without failing to experience the anguish in his existence. In view of this, Kierkegaardian thought is in full communion with contemporaneity, as it provides the means for contemporary man to relate to anguish and faith based on his subjectivity.
