Iisus Hristos – Plinirea Revelaţiei Dumnezeieşti. Aspecte Moderne Dogmatice Şi Misionare

Author(s): Tudor Cosmin Ciocan / Language(s): Romanian

Autorul a reuşit să surprindă în mod panoramic, cu o profunzime deosebită a cercetării raportul dintre Revelaţie şi inspiraţie, arătând în primul rând că acestea sunt lucrări iconomice cu finalitate soteriologică atât a Persoanei dumnezeieşti a Fiului, cât şi a Persoanei dumnezeieşti a Duhului Sfânt; în al doilea rând, autorul prezintă relaţia dintre Revelaţie şi inspiraţie ca o relaţie dintre întreg şi parte, cele două manifestări fiind în mod cert indisolubile şi unitare. De asemenea, autorul demonstrează că Revelaţia nu poate fi confundată cu vreun act derulat în planul secundar al viitorologiei; prin Revelaţie se descoperă voia şi planul iconomic al Sfintei Treimi şi nu neapărat viitorul interpretabil de omul desacralizat. În acelaşi timp inspiraţia nu trebuie să fie circumscrisă „cultului alesului”, nici redusă la subiectivitatea autonomă şi superficială post-modernă, ci ea este – în evaluarea misionară ortodoxă – o sacramentală iluminare a aghiografului de către Duhul Sfânt, fără ca raţiunea, voinţa sau libertatea acestuia să fie în vreun fel afectată.Autorul are meritul de a fi accentuat – într-o viziune profund ortodoxă – centralitatea Mântuitorului, atât în actul Revelaţiei, cât şi al inspiraţiei şi deopotrivă de a opune – în mod salutar – misiunea profetică a Bisericii ocultismului contemporan cu nocivele sale consecinţe. Mai mult, autorul prezintă cu deosebită competenţă cadrul eterodox ce raţionalizează actul inspiraţiei dumnezeieşti prin intermediul ipotezelor: ipoteza instrumentului, a dictării, a mesagerului şi nu în ultimul rând, cea a extazului.Autorul denunţă falsa religiozitate – cu privire la Revelaţie şi la inspiraţie – atât în interiorul creştinătăţii, cât şi în exteriorul acesteia. Astfel, pseudo-religiozitatea creştină occidentală – complet diferită de cea ortodoxă răsăriteană – este redată prin aşa-numita „revelaţie deschisă” şi este fundamentală pentru tot ceea ce numim neo-protestantism; în egală măsură, pseudo-religiozitatea seculară se manifestă printr-o neo-gnoză sau un neo-gnosticism, ce ocultează în tipurile noastre vechiul gnosticism păgân din perioada primară a Bisericii, în fapt fiind o pseudo-cunoaştere ce are un fundament ne-revelat şi se plasează în exteriorul spaţiului ecclesial

The Holy Scriptures a l'anglais to suit any locale

Author(s): Boris Naimushin / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This article is part of a multidisciplinary research project in Translation Studies. It investigates the changing function of Christianity in today’s Western world as reflected in the multitude of contemporary EnglishBible translations and revisions. Focusing on the controversial 'Bill C-250’ in Canada as its starting point, the article looks at ‘Bible localization’ resulting in a rapid increase in the number of English Bibles specifically aimed at various ethnic and social groups and minorities. The author argues that despite the popularity of the secularization theory and the growing tendency to eliminate religious instruction in schools in many Western countries, Localized Bibles areincreasingly used as a tool in the construction of identities.

Biblija kao Sveto pismo

Author(s): Domagoj Runje / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Ovaj, malo neobičan naslov treba razjasniti. Biblija, riječ koja dolazi iz grčkog jezika i jednostavno znači knjige, općepoznati je pojam koji se u najširem smislu odnosi na veliku zbirku židovskih svetih knjiga (kršćanski Stari zavjet) i kraći kršćanski dodatak – Novi zavjet. Već ta potreba za tumačenjem što je Biblija govori o tome da je riječ o tekstovima kojima se može pristupati na različite načine, s različitim interesima i ciljevima. Bibliju se može istraživati s povijesnih, književnih, kulturnih i raznih drugih gledišta.

Isus iz Nazareta u novim interpretativnim kontekstima

Author(s): Božo Lujić / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Svako vrijeme nekim svojim spoznajama stečenima na raznim područjima života otvara nužno i nove pristupe u istraživanju Pisma: njegovih pojedinih likova, sadržaja i poruke. Tako je vrijeme racionalizma, označeno i kao moderna, iznjedrilo prvenstveno povijesno-kritičke metode koje su usmjerile istraživanja prema povijesnoj dimenziji Pisma. Istraživanja pomoću tih metoda su otkrila nove spoznaje u nastanku pojedinih knjiga ili dijelova knjiga i omogućile bolje uvide u procese nastajanja, rasta i preoblikovanja biblijske poruke. Na tom su tragu bila svakako zanimljiva istraživanja na području nastanka evanđelja i shvaćanja osobe i djela Isusa iz Nazareta.

Droga Szymona Budnego do krytycznego wydania Nowego Testamentu z 1574 roku

Author(s): Arleta Łuczak / Language(s): Polish

This work is devoted to the translations of the New Testament by Szymon Budny – an eminent sixteenth-century Polish writer, and outstanding linguist and biblical scholar of the Reformation. At first a Calvinist, Budny then became an Arian activist. The book's its purpose is to describe the changing progression taking place in the three editions of Budny’s translations of the New Testament from 1570, 1572 and 1574. To this end, I perform a philological analysis of these texts in comparison to other biblical Polish translations of the 16th century (mainly to the Calvinist Brest Bible of 1563 and to the 1568 New Testament, which was modelled on it) as well as to Greek and Latin texts. The dynamic process of shaping the changes in succeeding translations of the New Testament, which Budny constantly improved and perfected, is most evident in his critical edition of the New Testament from 1574. Here, the author was able to present the results of his search for the authentic, i.e. correct and error-free, original text, a search which he based on multiple sources. He also expressed his position regarding the method of translation and theological interpretation (which corresponded to his confession).

Obszary tabu w kinie biblijnym głównego nurtu

Author(s): Magdalena Kempna-Pieniążek / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The article focuses on the presence / the absence of taboo in mainstream biblical film. Except for Henry Koster’s „The Story of Ruth”, the genre usually avoids presenting Jewish or Christian strict interdictions in an open way. In the same time the films are strongly marked with the presence of unmentionable themes concerning the erotic, customs an aesthetics. The author shows some changes in presenting taboo in biblical film during the years by analyzing classical movies (Cecil B. DeMille’s „The Ten Commandments”, Henry King’s „David and Bathsheba”) as well as the contemporary ones (Mel Gibson’s „The Passion of Christ”, Darren Aronofsky’s „Noah”, Ridley Scott’s „Exodus: Gods and Kings”).

The Laying Hands, Religion or Social?

The Laying Hands, Religion or Social?

Author(s): Mihai Stoicescu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The 21st century will be a religious one or not. The revolutions in the former communist bloc seemed to turn the world into churches and set the tone for bringing religion back to the forefront. A rediscovery of the values of the Christian faith will produce a pure and true religion. One of these values is putting hands. Both Jesus Christ and the apostles were healed, "poured out" the Holy Spirit upon the converts, and consecrated men to the ministry by laying on of hands.

Onomastyka biblijnych tekstów przekładowych jako problem badawczy

Author(s): Maria Kamińska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The aim of the article is to outline some problems of the contextual treatment of the nomen proprium, taking into account, on the one hand, the surroundings of the name, and on the other, the relation to the text constituting the basis for the translation. The author points out, inter alia, on the difference between the nomen proprium and a common word, on the origin of names, their etymology and the related issue of translating proper names. She draws attention to a variety of adaptation measures that bring the name closer to the Polish recipient and the attitude towards translation tradition.

Religion, Religious Groups and Migration

Author(s): / Language(s): English

The relationship between religion, religious groups, and migration is an important topic of recent social science debate. Migration affects all aspects of the lives of those who have left their homes, including facets characterized as religious. Religion and religious identity are linked to social, cultural, and political issues, including integration, identity negotiation, diasporic community formation, interreligious dialogue, and religious pluralism. On the one hand, migration can change religious cultures, rituals, and traditions through the experience of mobility and the response of the host country. On the other hand, religious groups can encourage migration. In this context, new forms of transnational interaction and organization have emerged that contribute to the reformulation of community and identity. In some cases, such changes can lead to new conflicts and even trigger religious radicalization. This edited book consists of essays that bring together various perspectives on religious groups and their migration processes in different geographical regions. The aim is to empirically analyze the discourse and practices of national and transnational religious groups while investigating the relationship of religion and migration to political, historical, cultural, and social transitions. The book brings together academics and practitioners from different countries through interdisciplinary approaches that will be of interest to a wide readership of scholars and practitioners.

“Subject to Magistrates, and Princes, and Powers, but within the Limits of Discipline”:  Romans 13:1–7 before the Edict of Constantine the Great (c. 167–250 CE)

“Subject to Magistrates, and Princes, and Powers, but within the Limits of Discipline”: Romans 13:1–7 before the Edict of Constantine the Great (c. 167–250 CE)

Author(s): Amiel Drimbe / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Romans 13:1–7 is among the best-known passages in the New Testament that addresses the submission of early Christians to the ruling powers of the day. Christians are to submit to the governing authorities, for they are ordained by God. Likewise, rebellion against the governing authorities means rebellion against God (Rom. 13:1–2). Yet Paul has in view only the ideal iteration of governance, in which rulers are “servants of God” (Rom. 13:4,6) and they reward the good and punish the evil. In times of tyranny and persecution, however, later ecclesiastics had to look back at Romans 13:1–7 from a different perspective: should Christians submit to unjust and despotic rulers? The answer that takes shape during the first two centuries of the Christian era (c. 167–250 CE) is a conditioned “Yes”. The approach of these writers is mainly positive and constructive. Christians are to respect tyrannical rulers at all time, even when they must be resisted. Christians are to obey tyrannical rulers whenever they act justly and in everything that is not contrary to their faith. Christians are to pray for tyrannical rulers sincerely and without ceasing. There are, however, limits to Christians’ submission to governing authorities. They are to resist any demand that goes against “the rules of Christian life”: a ruler that claims the honor that belongs only to God, acts against the will and word of God, or acts under the influence of the devil, is to be resisted. Yet there are also limitations placed on their resistance, as there are limitations placed on their obedience. Christians are to resist tyrannical rulers in a manner that is brave, yet respectful, righteous, and peaceful.

Glasovi LGBTIQ+ vjernica i vjernika - Poziv na dijalog vjerskih zajednica i LGBTIQ+ zajednice

Author(s): / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian,Serbian

U srcu Balkana, unutar Bosne i Hercegovine, susretanje vjere, organizovane religije i seksualnosti odavno je tema prekrivena tišinom i osuđivanjem. To je mjesto gdje se duboko ukorijenjena tradicija i vjera susreću sa sve promjenjivijim razumijevanjem ljudskih prava, posebno onih LGBTIQ+ osoba. Ovaj zbornik tekstova, kolekcija glasova različitih autorica i autora, vodi čitateljstvo na putovanje kako bi se otkrile skrivene priče i prihvatila prisutnost LGBTIQ+ vjernika/ca u društvima Zapadnog Balkana, a sjene stigme bacile daleko, kao i kako bi se istražili načini na koje unutar organiziranih religijskih zajednica možemo kreirati prostore prihvatanja, razumijevanja i sigurnosti za LGBTIQ+ zajednicu i vjernike/ce unutar nje. Da bismo se pozabavili ovom tišinom, nužno je angažirati se u otvorenom dijalogu, slobodnom od predrasuda i unaprijed oblikovanih mišljenja i dogmi. Naša kolekcija tekstova služi kao katalizator za ovaj dijalog, osvjetljujući iskustva, borbe i nade LGBTIQ+ osoba koje zadržavaju svoju vjeru i duhovnost u bosanskohercegovačkom kontekstu. Ona baca svjetlo na izazove s kojima se suočavaju, kako unutar vjerskih zajednica tako i u širem društvu. Danas svjedočimo razlikama između stavova vjerskih zajednica i ljudskih prava LGBTIQ+ osoba. Štaviše, unutar samih vjerskih zajednica postoje proturječja i kolebanja oko ovih pitanja, pa i u širem kontekstu seksualnosti, koja odzvanjaju i u raznolikosti viđenja povezanosti i odnosa religije, vjerovanja, seksualnosti i roda unutar same LGBTIQ+ zajednice. Utjecaj vjerskih institucija u oblikovanju diskursa i javnog mnijenja u Bosni i Hercegovini i regiji Zapadnog Balkana je neosporan, što suočavanje s postojećim predrasudama i zabludama čini još važnijim. Raznoliki glasovi zastupljeni u ovom zborniku udružuju se kako bi pozvali na otvoren, empatičan i inkluzivan razgovor o postojanju i prihvaćanju LGBTIQ+ vjernika/ca. Ovaj zbornik nije samo kolekcija tekstova; on je poziv na akciju. Poziva čitateljstvo da istraži križišta vjere, ljubavi i identiteta te potiče razumijevanje i suosjećanje kako bismo zajedno radili na destigmatizaciji iskustava LGBTIQ+ vjernica/ka u Bosni i Hercegovini i šire. Naša iskrena želja je da ovaj zbornik posluži kao temelj promjene, te da otvori vrata prema inkluzivnijem i suosjećajnijem društvu na Balkanu i šire. Pozivamo vas da krenete na ovo putovanje s nama, da prihvatite bogatstvo različitih iskustava i perspektiva koje čine naše društvo, te da zajedno radimo na stvaranju pravednije i inkluzivnije budućnosti.

Excessive Spending

Excessive Spending

Author(s): Dan Romulus Şerban / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This article discusses God's love for humanity and His desire for reconciliation, as revealed in the parable of the prodigal son. The investment that God makes in man is immense. His willingness to give an individual a chance even without having the guarantee that he has straightened up and not repeated his fall is immense, and this attitude is visible in the parable of the prodigal son. Although many people like to compare themselves to the prodigal son due to the happy ending of the parable, most of them actually have much more in common with the older brother and refuse to understand that every person, regardless of public attitude, is equally precious to God. However, it should be noted that the identification with the older brother is unfortunately real. The article emphasizes that although humans fall prey to a recalcitrant attitude, God is always willing to wait and make atonement for each individual. It reveals that His forbearance, as well as His grace, are far more than human understanding can comprehend.

Identity Palimpsest – Ekklēsia: Linguistic Foundation and Creator of Civilizations

Identity Palimpsest – Ekklēsia: Linguistic Foundation and Creator of Civilizations

Author(s): Anca Ursache / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The term ekklēsia (ἐκκλησία), over time, has existed as an identity palimpsest in the pleiade of human civilizations, its dynamic consisting in selecting people from a whole, from the totality of a community, in order to conclude a legitimized convocation in an institution. Thus, we first identify the term in Athenian democracy, ekklēsia mirroring the general legislative assembly of the people in an ekklesiastirion, from which the activity of decisions founded by the casting of votes, ekloghes (εκλογες) transpires. With the establishment of Christianity, the concept is taken over in its substance and form, this time defining religious affiliation, later being linguistically converted to the culture and mentality of peoples who share the principles and values of Christ's teaching. The term underwent a slight transformation in Latin, taking the form of ecclesia, and the concept of ecclesiology, also built on Greek linguistic foundations, later developed as a branch of theology dealing holistically with both the principles of Christianity and the Gothic architecture of churches. This study revolves around linguistic considerations with the creative potential of human civilizations. The ancient Greek immaterial heritage is always present and certainly will be reinterpreted in the rendering of values to the world.

Human Dignity, First-Order Factor of Human Personality

Human Dignity, First-Order Factor of Human Personality

Author(s): Emanuel Dobrin / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The most complex being, man, is defined by an understanding of his dignity. Nothing is more important to humanity than ensuring that dignity is respected. It is dignity that makes man 'truly human', allowing him to manifest himself in complete freedom and express, unhindered, all the capacities and abilities with which he has been endowed or which he has developed. This paper explores various trends in the definition of human dignity and personality, while also examining the concerns of both ancient Greco-Roman and contemporary societies regarding the implementation of guarantees for human dignity in the social sphere, legal system, and interpersonal relationships. Although the exploration is limited, it aims to keep the concept of respect for human dignity at the forefront. This focus is essential, as the world can only be envisioned as a better place when human dignity is respected.

Daniel - A Prophet at the Crossroads of History

Daniel - A Prophet at the Crossroads of History

Author(s): Ioan-Gheorghe Rotaru / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The paper analyzes the historical context and impact of Daniel's life, emphasizing his loyalty to God while living in an unfamiliar land and culture. Daniel was born around 625 BC, about the time Jeremiah was beginning his prophetic mission, about the time King Josiah was reaching the climax of his religious reforms. The land of Daniel's birth, the kingdom of Judah, was on an upward, positive slope, with religious reforms taking place as the prophet Jeremiah began his sermons to the people. The genius of the pagan world, Nebuchadnezzar, meets Daniel, the most intelligent man in the Hebrew world at the time. Daniel, at the turning point of history, through his personality, his earnestness and his prophetic vision, which he had taken upon himself, succeeded in conveying to King Nebuchadnezzar the three things: the intelligence, the power and the sovereignty of God, and this was to be conveyed to a whole world through the interpretation of the dream. So at a turning point in history, Daniel was able to light a light, and it would reach the end of history.

Aspects of Discipleship in the Sermon on the Mount

Aspects of Discipleship in the Sermon on the Mount

Author(s): Paul Cristian Ionașcu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The purpose of this article is to explore some aspects of Jesus' discipleship described in the Sermon on the Mount. Taking into account notable writings on the concept of discipleship in the Sermon on the Mount by prominent theologians such as R. T. France and Bonhoeffer, this article examines these aspects. We will analyze the inner aspects of the Matthew text, aspects that Jesus presents. An indication that Jesus spoke in the text is that the disciples (prophets) know each other by their fruits (Matthew 7: 15-20), meaning according to their deeds. Furthermore, it is also important due to the fact that many Christians in the world claim to be disciples of Jesus, but their deeds show the opposite. Our analysis will extend to the concept of discipleship during the period of the Second Temple, a period that also includes the time in which Jesus lived. Following this, we will look at some concepts that Jesus presents in the text, giving special attention to the inner aspects emphasized in Matthew 5-7.
