Summary/Abstract: The sermons of the learned Transylvanian bishop Ignác Batthyány (1780-1798) have never been published. In the Archbishop’s Archives of Alba Iulia there are several manuscripts of his sermons delivered on the occasion of church consecrations. The sermon published below was preached in Farkaslaka on July 10, 1783. The bishop explains the ceremony of church consecration using frequently biblical symbols. At the same time, he draws practical conclusions from them, especially pointing out the importance of the sacrament of penance and the obligation of the sacrament of baptism.
