Summary/Abstract: This article explores revisions to József Ferencz’s (1835–1928) Unitarian Catechism, including the revisions’ underlying evolving theological aspects and perspectives. The most significant revisions were made in 1875, 1947, and 1973, and in different circumstances. The article evaluates the theological aspects of the revisions, and proposes that the revisions have contributed to the development of Hungarian Unitarian theology, and enriched the practice of confirmation. The article also calls attention to the necessity of revising the present Unitarian Catechism, and includes the editions of the Unitarian Catechism.
