The word agape derives from the Latin “agăpe” and the Greek “ἀγάπη” which can be translated as “affection” or “love”. The word Agape is used to refer to the fraternal meal of a religious nature within the main Christians destined to strengthen the ties that united them. For this reason agape is known as a banquet, or a meal celebrated to celebrate something, whether it be a private or public party, which can also be collective or celebrated in the open air, which is done with the intention of celebrating some event or of honor a guest.
In the area of religion, it seeks to benefit the union between Christians and provoke brotherhood, friendship, companionship, solidarity in which social difference is broken. But in addition, the main Christians who lived in society and considered themselves as brothers are distinguished. As the group grew, the feasts became extremely important to sustain that union.
In the Greek language "agápē" is used to describe an unconditional and thoughtful love that only considers the well-being of the loved one. Several Greek philosophers of the Plato period, who are described as a Greek philosopher and writer who exerted a decisive influence on him, who stopped a provisional and methodical distancing that used the term to choose, by rivalry to personal love, universal love is experienced as love of truth, which is the one that encompasses honesty, good faith and human trust or the human condition, which is the whole of the experience of the human being and human lives.
