The Stilling of the Storm (Mk 4:35–41, parr.)

Ladislav Tichý

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):1-16 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0421279  

The stilling of the storm on the Sea (Lake) of Galilee is narrated in all three synoptic gospels (Mk 4:35–41; Mt 8:23–27; Luke 8:22–25). The article comments on the singular texts, beginning with the passage of Mark. After the exposition of the texts of Matthew and Luke, special attention is given to the textual tradition in the large synoptic gospels (i.e. Mt and Luke) because of the theory of the so­-called "Deuteromark" proposed especially for this story by the Austrian scholar A. Fuchs. The article sees this theory (in which the authors of the gospels of Matthew and Luke are supposed to have used a later and more developed version...

Jan, syn Zebedeův, v Lukášově dvojdíle

John, the Son of Zebedee, in the Lukan Double Work

Petr Mareček

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):17-39 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0451100  

The apostle John, the son of Zebedee and the brother of the Apostle James, is one of the six characters in the New Testament who bears the name Ἰωάννης "John". After John the Baptist, John Zebedee is the second most frequently mentioned bearer of this name in the New Testament. We encounter him 30 times, especially in the Synoptic Gospels and in the Acts of the Apostles. The article focuses on John Zebedee in the Lukan double work, where he appears in 7 scenes in the Gospel of Luke (5:1–11; 6:12–16; 8:40–56; 9:28–36, 49–50, 51–56; 22:7 –13) and in 6 scenes in the Acts of...


Mojžiš – Boží priateľ: Priateľstvo človeka s Bohom ako vrchol duchovného rozvoja (Gregor z Nyssy, Život Mojžiša II,319–321)

Moses – God’s Friend: a Friendship between a Human and God as the Ultimate in Spiritual Development (Gregory of Nyssa, Life of Moses II,319–321)

Helena Panczová

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):41-59 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0201451  

At the end of the Life of Moses Gregory of Nyssa presents his hero under the biblical title "God’s friend" (Ex 33:11 LXX). The Hellenistic idea about friendship between a human and God is delicately linked with the argumentation that human perfection consists in the renewal of God’s image in a human. (1) The friendship of Moses and God is connected with Gregory’s central exposition on epectasis: both themes are derived from the exegesis of one biblical episode (Ex 33:12–23) and are also connected with the explanation that the motivation is love. (2) Friendship with God formed part of the original image of God in humans....


Římské právo a kanonické právo


Roman Law and Canon Law

Ignác Antonín Hrdina

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):61-88 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0342182  

The article deals with the relationship and interaction of Roman and canon law. The first part (Introduction to Roman Law) describes the developmental stages of Roman law and its "second life" (the process of its reception). The second part (Roman Law and the Law of the Catholic Church) deals with the relationship of Canon Law to Roman Law according to the individual stages of development of Canon Law: in the period of the so­-called "old law" (jus antiquum), where the principle of Ecclesia vivit lege Roman is shaped; in the period of the so­-called "new middle age law" (jus novum medii aevi), when Roman law became an official...

Kázání pro dominikánky v klášteře u sv. Anny na Starém Městě pražském na začátku 18. století

Sermons Presented During the Celebrations of Receiving the Habit at the Convent of St. Anne in the Early Eighteenth Century

Pavel Walter

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):89-111 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0461094  

This article deals with a collection of four printed Christian sermons brought out between 1706 and 1721 and intended for Dominican nuns receiving the habit at St. Anne Convent in the Old Town of Prague. It focuses on these sermons from a historical perspective as well as a theological perspective and points out topics that keep occurring regularly in the texts – particularly the self­-presentation of the entering girl’s family (reading their coat of arms, important events from the family’s history), enclosure and spiritual life in the nunnery. First, the article follows a collection of three sermons written up by Dominican order...


Myslet metafyziku antropologicky: Impulsy k teologické metafyzice z oblasti filosofie náboženství a filosofické teologie


Thinking Anthropologically about Metaphysics: Impulses for Theological Metaphysics in the Fields of Philosophy of Religion and Philosophical Theology

Lucie Kolářová

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):113-135 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0471268  

The article deals with the problem of an anthropological understanding of metaphysics in theology and addresses its relevance against a confrontation with an ontological understanding of theological metaphysics. The article format does not allow for a comprehensive treatise but raises the issue as a principal question that can comprehend the problem’s basic context and aspire to an answer as to whose conclusiveness should be – in discussion with philosophical­-religious and philosophical­-theological theorems – rationally autonomous. The text is based on the works of authors whose thinking a) enables an identification of a "connecting...

Immensum v kontextu Leibnizovy korespondence s Clarkem

Immensum in the Context of Leibniz’s Correspondence with Clarke

Kateřina Lochmanová

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):137-159 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.044956  

This study challenges some interpretative strategies comparing Leibniz’s, or even Newton’s metaphysics of space to a Cartesian one. Not only did both Newton and Leibniz explicitly oppose Cartesian metaphysics as such, but neither of them had even the slightest intention of separating space from God, although they did not agree on the exact nature of such a space­-God relationship. Moreover, it was just a conceptual disagreement, since the identification of space with an attribute of God is to be found not only by Leibniz but also by Newton, as well as by his defender Samuel Clarke. Neither diverge the reasons why Leibniz no more than Clarke...

Podněty Berndta Hamma pro interdisciplinární teorii tradice

Proposals of Berndt Hamm for the Interdisciplinary Theory of Tradition

Jaroslav Vokoun

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):161-174 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0411035  

The author considers whether and to what extent Hamm’s model of emergence can be included among those models in which we try to capture the processes of tradition. This would obviously be appropriate where a straightforward relationship between the identified causes and the outcome cannot be determined. Beyond Hamm’s thesis, the author also examines the views of other authors on the issue of emergence. The article is a proposal in terms of genre. Thus, it presents this option for discussion, but does not apply it to specific cases. Cases of emergence can be expected, for example, in the tradition of the interpretation of the Scriptures...

Pojetí člověka v teologii Hnutí víry

The Concept of a Man within the Theology of the Word­-Faith Movement

Michaela Maratová

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):175-196 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0401170  

The paper focuses on an analysis of the anthropological Word­-Faith movement and its participation or identification doctrine which is closely connected to their understanding of redemption and human deification. A brief introduction and an overview of the current debate about the topic is also included in the analysis. The works of E. W. Kenyon, K. Hagin and K. Copeland represent the main source of material, as they all are considered the most influential representatives of this movement.


Poměr T. G. Masaryka k regulérním zednářům


Masaryk’s Relationship to the Regular Free Masons

Ctirad Václav Pospíšil

Studia Theologica 2020, 22(1):197-227 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0371902  

This theme is processed by Catholic theologian because the question of Free Masons is connected in the Catholic world frequently with a false presumption, a superstition, that Regular Free Masons are Satanists. Combating superstition is indeed the task of a theologian. In the first and preparative part of this study, the author presents the most important facts from the history of Regular Free Masons in the world and in Czech history. In the second and scientific contributive part, the author analyses the Masaryk’s texts which are dedicated to the issue of Free Masons in their chronological succession. In the conclusion, the author states, that...
