Summary/Abstract: Oriental catechisms represent miaphysitic Christology based on formulations of St. Kyrillos of Alexandria (μία φύσις του̃ Θευ̃ λόγου σεσαρκωμένη). Catholic and Eastern Orthodox catechisms are written in the light of the Christology of St. Leo the Great (Iesus Christus est Deus vere et Homo vere). The analysis of both types of the catechisms shows, that their Christology is orthodox. Doctrine of the Oriental catechisms is made aviable in Slovakia for the first time.
