Summary/Abstract: The present study analyzes the first translations of the Creed into Romanian from a theological and philological point of view. The translations of the Creed from Catehismul românesc (Sibiu, 1544), Întrebare creștinească (Brașov, 1559) and Dumnezeiasca Liturghie a Mitropolitului Dosoftei al Moldovei (Iași, 1679) were chosen as examples. Their comparison with the Greek originals or Latin translations allows for important findings regarding the evolution of the Romanian theological language and shows that within a century and a half the literary form of the Creed reached the conceptual maturity we know today.
