Summary/Abstract: Canon laws regarding clerics. The present study analyses a series of canon laws from the Orthodox Church which establish the criteria by which the church hyerarchy or the clergy fulfill their holy mission of leading the believers on the path of redemption. Thus, the study presents canonic laws concerned with: the involvement of clerics in political activities, the punishments for clerics' sins, incompatible activities with priesthood and with the social life of clerics.
