The study tries to describe the dignity of man as an expression of divine freedom. What is meant, however, is not the freedom of the Father, but the freedom of the Son. Following Wolfhart Pannenberg, the Son of God is understood as the principle of being different. The dignity of man consists in being able to transcend the order established with creation. Where new possibilities are opened, the freedom of the Son is revealed. This conception is highly compatible with the debate on dignity outside of theology.
