Full textAbstract:
Christians have had centuries of experience with a wide variety of synods or councils, and the establishment by Pope Paul VI in 1965 of the Synod of Bishops is one of the latest examples. It is already clear that with Pope Francis the Synod will increase its already great impact on the life and mission of the Church. This article will begin by presenting the current canon law governing the Synod, mainly from the 1983 Code of Canon Law. Particular attention will then be given to the ecclesial dynamics within which the Synod operates. This will involve considering papal primacy, episcopal collegiality, Ecumenical Councils, the College of Cardinals and the Roman Curia. While accepting that the Synod must be understood on its own terms, the concluding reflections will illustrate the need to state as a matter of theology and of history the foundations on which synodality and conciliarity rest.

Full textAbstract:
The Second Vatican Council shaped a new model for a diocesan synod, which was adopted, among others, in Poland, and is characterised by a departure from making the norms of particular law and the popularisation of the council teaching in particular Churches. On the other hand, after the promulgation of the new Code of Canon Law in 1983, the diocesan synods adjusted the diocesan law to the code norms. When this period of the reception of the code law to the diocesan legislation achieved its result, the final resolutions of the subsequent diocesan synods, which were usually extensive, do not meet — to a large extent — the requirements set by the documents of the Holy See: Instruction of the Congregation for Bishops and the Congregation for the Evangelisation of Nations of 1997 and the Directory of the Congregation for Bishops Apostolorum successores of 2004. The author calls for the use of these enunciations so that diocesan synods can be an effective tool for the renewal of a particular Church.

Full textAbstract:
In the coming months, the General Synod and then the diocesan synods will be considering legislation enabling bishops of the Church of England to ordain women to the office of priest, and making related provisions as to the manner and effect of this change in the law and practice of the Church of England. The purpose of this article is not to examine that draft legislation, which at the time of writing is still being subjected to line-by-line scrutiny in a Revision Committee of the General Synod, but to sketch in some of the legal background against which it was prepared. In particular, there is a fundamental issue: why is legislation needed? To which may be added: why is Parliamentary authority, expressed by the approval of a Measure, required for any necessary change in the Canons?

Papież Franciszek zwrócił Kościół w kierunku nadania mu charakteru synodalnego, dlatego też kolejny synod biskupów zajmuje się już zagadnieniem synodalności i ma szukać jej właściwego kształtu. Ważne jest, aby dobrze znać genezę tego zagadnienia, gdyż tylko w ten sposób będzie można je właściwie podjąć i ukierunkować w służbie misji zbawczej, którą Kościół pełni. W nauczaniu papieża Franciszka znajdujemy jasno określone pryncypia, na których można budować poprawnie rozumianą synodalność i włączać ją w życie Kościoła na różnych poziomach jego funkcjonowania. Stanowią one właściwe przygotowanie do obecnego synodu biskupów oraz prawidłowe ukierunkowanie jego procesu i podejmowanych konkretnie prac. The origins and the preparations for a new Synod of Bishops concerning synodality Pope Francis has guided the Church so as to make her more synodal in character, which is why another Synod of Bishops already deals with the issue of synodality and is committed to find its appropriate shape. It is vital to analyse thoroughly the origins of this matter since only then it will be possible to deal with it correctly and to apply it in the mission of salvation pursued by the Church. In the teachings of pope Francis we can find clearly defined principles which may constitute a foundation for correctly understood synodality which can be incorporated in the life of the Church on different levels of her activity. These principles constitute an appropriate preparation for the present Synod of Bishops and the appropriate orientation for its proceedings and particular undertakings.

Full textAbstract:
On March 19, 1997, an instruction entitled ‘De Synodis Dioecesanis Agendis‘ was issued jointly by the Congregation for Bishops and the Congregation for Evangelization of Peoples. This Instruction is based on the regulations of the Code of Canon Law published in 1983.
In the light of the new Instruction, a Diocesan Synod is to be an instrument of renewal of religious life, pastoral ministry and of the particular Church Law. The entire community of Gods People should be envolved in the works of a Diocesan Synod: its priests, the religious and the laity. They should participate in its works on all stages - in praparations, deliberations and in fulfilment of the resolutions.
A Diocesan Synod, understood like this, has the pastoral character and its legislative function is utilized for the pastoral ministry. While a Synod is in session, the Diocesan bishop is the only legislator; other participants -through their advisory voice - take part in preparing the synodal law.

This article looks at the background to the Synod of Dort (1618–1619) and examines the debate there on the issue of particular redemption or definite atonement, with a specific focus on the use of the classic distinction between sufficiency and efficacy made famous by Peter Lombard’s Sentences. It also looks at the variety of Reformed responses to the Remonstrants, including those on the death of Christ that might be categorized as hypothetical universalist. It calls into question the usefulness of the terminology of “four-point Calvinists” to describe delegates such as John Davenant.

Full textAbstract:
This article studies the mechanism of interaction of the Synod, its institutions and bodies of the central church administration with the Secret Chancellery during the first half of the 1720s. The analysis is based on the documents of the Synod containing correspondence with the Secret Chancellery. This study is a continuation of the research on the relationship between the Secret Chancellery and the Russian Orthodox Church, whose resluts had been published earlier. A deeper immersion in the topic provided greater insights into the joint activities of the synodal institutions and Russia’s main penal body at the time, as well as revealed the details of the most important contacts and pertinent problems. Of particular importance is the activity of the Chancellery of the Most Holy Synod, through which official correspondence with the Secret Chancellery and control over the implementation of its decisions as well as defrocking of priests before the start of investigation were carried out. Further, the paper describes the categories of convicts who were sent to the Synod from the Secret Chancellery and looks into the differences in their position. Contrary to the prevailing opinion about the absence of relations between the Synod and the Secret Chancellery, the author concludes that in practice there was a certain mechanism of interaction, which concerned investigations regarding the accused from among the clergy and their commital, as well as granting official requests from both parties, sending ecclesiastical experts, and enforcing sentences of the Secret Chancellery. In addition, facts are considered that testify to extremely complex and contradictory relations between the Synod and the Secret Chancellery. The author concludes that the relationship between these institutions was not systemic, but developed in the context of the state’s general advance on the church and subordination of the latter and the clergy to state interests. The mechanism of interaction between the Synod and the Secret Chancellery was formed in line with this trend as well.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose. The purpose of the scientific article is to expose the historical significance and relevance of the Zamojs’kyj Synod of 1720, to investigate the legal impact of synodal acts on the unification, development and identity of the Kyiv Unity Church. The historical context (circumstances, socio-political processes of the late 17th – early 18th centuries) is explained. Methodology. The methodological basis of the study was, in particular, the dialectical method of scientific cognition, through which comprehensively investigated the decisions and resolutions of the Zamojs’kyj Synod of 1720 and their relationship with material and cultural and moral factors. The systematic method was applied in the complex study of large and complex objects (sources, decisions and resolutions of the Zamojs’kyj Synod of 1720). The method of comparison was applied in establishing the similarities and differences of historical and legal phenomena and law-making processes in the bosom of the unified Kyiv Church , formation and development of processes, events in chronological sequence. Originality. The scientific novelty of the research is to uncover the historical significance and relevance of the Zamojs’kyj Synod of 1720, ex. Effects of Synodal Acts on the unification, development and Identity of the Unified Church of Kyiv. Results. The study found that the adoption and approval of many canonical norms prohibited the Zamojs’kyj Synod from most roman catholic ceremonial practices, practices of the Eastern byzantine-ukrainian rite, which were not otherwise stipulated, and legalized a number of roman catholic religious holidays. The innovations fostered a better understanding between representatives of the byzantine rite and their catholic neighbors. The rulemaking of the Zamojs’kyj Synod defined the main directions of development of the Kyiv Church for the following centuries up to the present day. Practical importance. The results of the study can be used in law-making activities for the purpose of legal regulation of public relations in the sphere of state-confessional relations.

Full textAbstract:
In 1559 Philip II left the Netherlands for Spain, where, from then on, he was to rule his empire. The government of the Provinces united by his father, Charles V, was left to his bastard sister Margaret, Duchess of Parma. Although she faithfully followed the Habsburg line, which in religion meant opposing Protestantism, her reign was characterized by a certain lack of firmness, enabling opposing factions to assert themselves. Shortly before Philip’s departure, Henry II, his French rival, had died in a tournament. His children and widow were as unable to quell the religious unrest in France as Margaret was in the Netherlands. In this situation, Calvinism grew irresistibly: from around 1555, it had already increased greatly in strength under Henry II, and in 1559 it had managed to hold a synod in Paris. That synod, as well as drawing up a Confession of Faith, produced its Discipline or Church Ordinance; and the best way of tracing the growth of Calvinism is to examine how rapidly the synods met, and to see how the Church Ordinances were adjusted to meet particular circumstances. That this development in the French Reformed Church had repercussions in the adjoining Netherlands, where the same language was spoken, at least in part, needs scarcely to be emphasized. Besides, during the reign of Elizabeth I, Calvinist refugee congregations were established in England, and these, in turn, could be used as bases for serving the Netherlands.

Full textAbstract:
In the article, a reflection is made on the legal regulations developed by the First Synod of the Diocese of Opole, concerning the management of temporal goods of the Diocese. The study presents the content of 17 statutes and 5 annexes (as well as considering earlier studies produced by one of the synodal working commissions, intended to be discussed by the parish synodal groups), and reflects on the completeness of the legal treatment of this vital yet complex area of ecclesiastical life. The solutions adopted by the Synod should be considered incomplete, but the synodal legislator, that is the diocesan bishop, has the right to enact such particular norms as he deems appropriate and necessary.

Full textAbstract:
The Particular Law of The Romanian Church United with Rome And the CCEO With Reference to Divine Cult And the Sacraments. Theological And Historical Premises (XVIIth-XVIIIth Centuries) This study is meant to contribute to the understanding of the theological and the historical premises that stood at the basis of the codification activity carried on by our regional synods at the end of the nineteenth century, premises that, though relatively remote from a historical point of view, are sufficiently actual when regarded from the perspective of theological conceptualisation. The issue remains open to a more thorough study of immediate premises, such as the analysis of the theological formation of a forerunner of the above-mentioned synods, the canonist Iosif Papp Szylagy, the specific formation of each member of the theological commissions of those regional church reunions, or the eventual synod debates. The discussion can also be circumscribed to an ampler discourse, for example that referring to the confessional or the ritual identity. Since the studies on inter-confessional relations (religious life, for instance), and those concerning the inter-religious relationships in Transylvania, produced in the last 15 years, have focused almost exclusively on the national-social-cultural-historical relevance of those relationships, we find it crucial to start completing the already existing corpus with the consideration of theological-historical aspects.

Full textAbstract:
The XVI General Synod of Bishops takes place in an unprecedented manner up to now and at unprecedented stages so far. It is realized not only in the Vatican but in every particular Church on the five continents. For the first time in the history of the Church, the synod is being held in a decentralized manner. The reality of communion-community, but also participation and mission, are constitutive for the Church. It must simply be said that communion is synodal or it is not present at all. It sounds like a slogan, but its meaning is precise: synodality is the Church’s most participant form of communion. In walking together of the People of God with their shepherds, in a synodal process in which all participate, each according to his function, reciprocity of entities is established which under the guidance of the Holy Spirit lead the Church of Christ forward.

Full textAbstract:
The doctrine of election presents us with an intellectual challenge. The Synod of Dort maintained that, based on his sovereign good pleasure, God decided to choose some for salvation and punish others with condemnation. This truth often leaves the impression that God acted in an arbitrary or even unjust manner. The Canons of Dort, though, present the electing God as a merciful Father and frame election within the language of adoption. As the Canons shape this doctrine in this way, they help God’s people understand it better, even though certain questions will remain. This article combines doctrinal analysis and parabolic storytelling to highlight the particular strengths of the Canons’ treatment of this challenging doctrine.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the issue of relations between the state and the church in the Russian Empire in 1725—1730 in the political sphere. Attention is paid to the preservation of the former policy of the state represented by the Synod in relation to the local episcopate. On the example of the Nizhny Novgorod region, a general description of the organization of the diocesan administration is given with a description of a number of changes that have occurred; the versatile activity of Archbishop Pitirim, who lost the reliable support of Peter I in connection with his death and is now faced with serious challenges, is considered in the article. The results of the analysis of problems in the relationship between secular and spiritual authorities in political terms are presented. A classification of these problems is proposed on the basis of a generalized analysis of the entire range of issues that have become the object of contradictions between the state and the church. Particular attention is paid to problems that were of a financial, economic and administrative-legal nature. It is shown on the basis of regional material that on a number of issues it was clearly not enough for the adoption of this or that decision at the level of the Synod, and the local bishops needed a resolution of the Senate. It is proved that the problems of church-state relations, laid down under Peter I, retained their relevance during subsequent reigns.

Full textAbstract:
This article reassesses the value of the Canons of Dort, drafted at the Synod of Dort (1618–19). A picture with diverse shades emerges. After four hundred years, the Canons of Dort stand out when compared to the Remonstrant position for their pastoral tone, Reformed catholicity, emphasis on the efficacity of divine grace, an infralapsarian stance on the decrees of God, and their biblical character. In retrospect, however, the Canons also show theological limitations such as allowing the dominance of the Arminian agenda, the potentially problematic nature of complex, causal logic, the deficiency of certain important biblical notions, and a deficiency as to the centrality of Christ. Christ as the mirror of election in particular deserves a more central place in the doctrine of election.

Pope John Paul II understood the mission of the Church to be a participation in the priestly, prophetic, and royal mission of Christ. This essay follows the development of this understanding from his time as Archbishop of Cracow though to Evangelium vitae. It examines, in particular, evangelization and its relationship to the threefold mission. It traces its development through his integration of the teaching of Lumen gentium on the threefold office of Christians and the teaching on evangelization in Evangelii nuntiandi. Noting that the Lineamenta of the Synod on New Evangelization makes little reference to the threefold office, it, finally, offers some ideas as to how we might develop our understanding of the threefold mission and apply it to ‘new evangelization.’

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article examines the ecclesiological tension caused by the nature of the Church as a singular and plural entity. As a singular entity, the Church is universal or catholic; in a plural designation, we speak of local or particular churches. The relationship between the universal and the local has generated many debates that have caused paradigm shifts within ecclesiology, from the hierarchical to the communio frameworks, and even synodality. In exploring these debates and their implications for some aspects of the legislative norms, as well as in the light of the contemporary conversations on synodality, the article address the theological question of the representative function of bishops. The evolution of the Synod of Bishops suggests that this long-running debate may be entering a new phase with the synodal processes that Pope Francis is promoting in the Church today.

Based on previously unpublished archival documents the paper examines spiritual-moral reading subjects in Orel province in the late XIX century and their organization features, in particular, lecturers, events place and time, reading programs. The author assumes that editions of the parish library collections have been used to prepare readings, and reconstructs the parish library stocks composition. It includes a thematic, linguistic and geographical range, species and typological aspects, chronological depth and the reader's purpose. The revealed facts make it possible to fill gaps in the church librarianship history.

O trabalho de pesquisa que aqui apresentamos busca oferecer uma reflexão a respeito do Sínodo sobre a Família e suas possíveis implicações teológicas e pastorais. Hoje, profundas transformações impactam sobre o contexto de muitas famílias, e estas nos desafiam pastoralmente e exigem de nos uma resposta coerente e comprometida com a fé professada, orientada no horizonte de Cristo e de seu Reino, de sua práxis. Foi o que projetamos com o titulo: o sentir da ternura. Evidenciamos diversas situações que ocorrem na realidade familiar e que reclamam uma atenção especial, seguramente, pastoral. Trouxemos alguns documentos oficiais do Magistério eclesiástico e suas novas ou possíveis interpretações. Confrontamos, ainda, os dois questionários do Sínodo, apontando, também, os seus limites. O projeto favoreceu uma visão mais próxima da realidade, no intuito de oferecer, de forma aberta e critica, uma nova postura frente as realidades existentes. ABSTRACT: The research presented here seeks to offer a reflection on the Synod on the Family and its possible theological and pastoral implications. Today, profound changes impact the context of many families and those challenge us pastorally and require a coherent ans and compromised to the faith that we profess, oriented on the horizon of Christ, his praxis and his Kingdom. This is what we project with the title: the feeling of tenderness. We evidence diverse situations that occur in the reality of several families and require particular attention, specially pastoral. Some official documents of the Ecclesiastical Magisterium have been brought, along with its new or possible interpretations. We confronted also the two questionnaires of the Synod, pointing out its limits. The Project favored a closer view of reality, in order to offer an open and critical way, a new posture to existing realities.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the ecclesiology of the local Church and synodality. Both topics have been present in Catholic theology since the time of the Second Vatican Council, which laid the foundation for the ecclesiology of the local/particular Church, collegiality of bishops and synodality. This ecclesiology was developed both theoretically and practically in the post-conciliar period, but there are some theologians who believe that during the pontificate of John Paul II there was a return to the universalist ecclesiology, as evidenced by the documents published by the Roman Curia, especially Communionis notio. Pope’s Francis teaching on synodality and strengthening the Church at local and regional levels addresses the demands of those theologians who believe that Chapter III of the Lumen Gentium Constitution has not yet been properly implemented. The Pope emphasizes, that synodality is a constitutive dimension of the Church and therefore what the Lord is asking of us is already in some sense fully present in the word “synod” itself.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to one of the pages in the history of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine – the study of church singing in all educational institutions of the spiritual department of the Kyiv diocese in the XIX – early XX centuries. The publications in the church press, as well as the reports of the Chief Procurator of the Holy Synod, concerning this topic, are analyzed. The main methods that were used in schools of different levels for the development of musical literacy by students have been determined. Particular attention is paid to the repertoire of singers – a list of prayers is presented, as well as the basic principles by which students were taught singing. It is noted what problems students, teachers, and schools faced during the practical implementation of the dissemination of musical literacy and the basics of church singing. The historical significance and importance of the study of church singing in the specified period, as well as its practical purpose, are emphasized.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the fact that the so-called “Five Points of Calvinism” are based on the five main points of the Canons of Dordt, it is misleading to assume that these five points are drawn directly from Calvin. The documents of the Synod of Dordt rarely refer to any theological source, including Calvin. However, a comparison of Calvin and the Canons suggests that Calvin was a probable influence on the Canons on the issue of double predestination and a possible influence on the themes of the universal call of the gospel, human depravity, efficacious grace, and perseverance. But Calvin was an unlikely influence on the Canons’ infralapsarian stance and on its formulations regarding negative-positive reprobation, particular grace, and the sufficient-efficient distinction. These latter issues became formulated in a more precise manner after Calvin, so later Reformed theologians were more likely influences. In sum, Calvin’s influence on the Canons could only have been moderate.

Full textAbstract:
In May-June 1905 a special conference on education for non-Russians (inorodtsy) of the eastern Empire met in St Petersburg. The conference was organized by the Ministry of National Enlightenment (i.e. Education) with the concurrence of the Holy Synod. It was chaired by A. S. Budilovich, a member of the Council of Ministers. The conference had been preceded by an investigatory commission, also headed by Budilovich, which visited non-Russian elementary schools in the eastern regions of Russia and interviewed education officials, teachers, and parents involved in the education of non-Russians in the area. The purpose of the commission and the subsequent conference was the “examination of the presently existing legislation concerning the non-Russian schools of eastern Russia and in particular that system among them which is linked to the name of N.I. Il'minskii, compared with the schools of the general type that exist in those regions, on the one hand, and with the confessional schools (especially Moslem and Buddhist), on the other.”

Full textAbstract:
The article analyses the situation in Polish Orthodox Church after the Second World War. Particular attention is paid by the author to the issues of the canonical and legal status of the Polish Orthodox Church, its relations with the Moscow Patriarchate and the issue of recognition of the autocephaly of the Polish Orthodox Church by the Moscow Patriarchate. This complicated process developed in the complex context of both the internal political situation in Poland during post-war period in 1945-1948 and its relations with the USSR. The situation was seriously complicated by the unwillingness of the Head of the Polish Orthodox Church, Metropolitan Dionisy, to leave the metropolitan see and recognize the non-canonical autocephaly of the Polish Orthodox Church in the interwar period. As a result, the “Act of Restoring the Unity of the Polish Orthodox Church with the Russian Orthodox Church and Recognizing Autocephaly”, adopted by the Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church on June 22, 1948, finally settled the canonical status of the Orthodox Church in Poland.

Full textAbstract:
In 1871, the board of the Jewish community of Vienna attempted to reform Sabbath and holiday services in the two synagogues under its official jurisdiction. Following the guidelines established by the Leipzig Synod in 1869, the board decided to remove from the liturgy all prayers that called for a return of the Jewish people to the land of Israel and for the restitution of the ancient sacrificial system of worship. In addition, Vienna's Jewish leaders announced that the introduction of an organ, the symbol of the Reform movement, was a good idea. The board never implemented these radical reforms. An enormous protest from Vienna's Orthodox community, as well as from numerous individuals who professed no particular commitment to religious Orthodoxy but who preferred to pray in the traditional manner, forced the leaders of the community to back down from these ideological reforms and to implement only a few, relatively minor “modifications” in the services in the temples. Viennese Jews rejected the ideological changes which were gaining in popularity in German Jewish communities in the last third of the nineteenth century.

En nuestro artículo intentamos añadir nuevos elementos al estudio de la praxis tardoantigua del exilio eclesiástico, a menudo utilizado como instrumento político por parte de obispos rivales. En particular analizamos, a través de algunas cartas del epistolario de Sinesio de Cirene, los exilios impuestos a los obispos que pertenecían al círculo de Juan Crisóstomo y que permanecieron fieles al obispo de Constantinopla después de su deposición en el sínodo de la Encina. Más en concreto estudiaremos el caso de uno de ellos -Alejandro de Cirene nombrado obispo de Basilinópolis en Bitinia - que ofrece informaciones muy valiosas sobre el status de un obispo exiliado y la consideración social que le rodeaba.AbstractIn this paper we will attempt to contribute new information to our knowledge of the practice of ecclesiastical exile in Late Antiquity, which was often used as a means of control by rival bishops. In particular, we will analyze the banishment imposed on bishops who belonged to the circle of John Chrysostom and who remained faithful to the bishop of Constantinople after his deposition in the Synod of the Oak through the study of a number of epistles of Synesius of Cyrene. More specifically, we will focus on the specific case of Alexander of Cyrene, who was appointed bishop of Basilinopolis in Bithynia, and who provides us with very valuable information regarding the standing of exiled bishops and their social standing.

Full textAbstract:
The Dioceses, Pastoral and Mission Measure 2007 is the longest and widest-ranging piece of legislation to come before the General Synod since the early 1980s. Like the recommendations of the Review Group under Professor Peter Toyne, to which it gives effect, the Measure focuses on the twin themes of mission and ministry. The Review Group's remit was ‘to ensure flexible and cost effective procedures which fully meet changing pastoral and mission needs’, and the Measure extends to areas of the life and legislation of the Church of England as diverse as the Church's provincial and diocesan structure, the delegation of episcopal functions, diocesan administration, and the processes for making changes to local church organisation and closing churches for regular public worship. The Measure also establishes a single central Church source of information and advice on church buildings. Finally, it provides a very practical example of the concept of a ‘mixed-economy church’ by laying down the legal framework for the new bishops' mission orders, which are intended to provide endorsement, supervision and support for a wide and growing variety of new mission initiatives, but without undermining the traditional parochial structures. The article sets out to provide an overview of the legislation, and to highlight the provisions that are likely to be of particular importance in practice or of particular interest for the study of ecclesiastical law.

Full textAbstract:
The medical work carried out by Dr. Anna Sarah Kugler in the town of Guntur (1880–1930), which was a part of the Telugu speaking region of the erstwhile Madras Presidency, as a foreign medical missionary associated with the mission field of the then General Synod of the Lutheran Church in America, constitutes a significant phase in the history of medicine and gender in South India. Despite bringing about visible changes in gender perceptions of medical professions, strangely, she or her work finds no mention in the social science literature on history of medicine in modern South India in general and coastal Andhra Pradesh in particular. This paper explores the nature and patterns of definitive changes that gender roles and patriarchal structures among the Telugus residing in coastal Andhra Pradesh have undergone after coming under the influence of a mission hospital in Guntur established by Dr. Anna Sarah Kugler. By doing so, it also brings out an analysis on how this medical institution transformed the firmly-held traditional perceptions and stereotypes on the sources of illness, disease, and treatments, and in turn laid the foundation for modern medicine to establish itself in South India.

Full textAbstract:
A special role in the public life of the Tambov province was occupied by the seminary. Particular importance in its development was attached to the administrative structure, a prototype of which is the current organization of higher educational institutions. The election of the rector was held on an alternative basis. The collegial body of management was the pedagogical assembly from 1867–1884. A new phenomenon for this period the seminary functioning was the general as-sembly, which included pedagogical (membership of 6 years) and regulatory (membership of 3 years). The pedagogical assembly was held once a month. Regulatory – once a week. The deci-sion was made by a majority of votes. This experience of introducing an elective element in the Tambov Seminary has had a useful influence on its activities. Unfortunately, not everywhere this practice led to positive results, which later seemed to be the reason for the abolition of this norm during the reforms of 1884, when it was decided that the Holy Synod nominate candidates for such important posts as rector and seminary inspector. It should be noted that similar reforms or “counter-reforms” carried out in the reign of Emperor Alexander III affected all educational institutions of the Russian Empire, including universities, where they toughened some norms of the university statute and, in particular, abolished the current provision according to which rector was elected for his post on an alternative basis.

Full textAbstract:
The essence of opposition of the Ukrainian church elite to the Russian centralism of the Synodal period (1721-1786) and analyzes its role in defending the rights and interests of the Orthodox Church are described in the article. The formation of Synod in 1721 opened in a new period in the history of the Orthodox Church in the Russian Empire, and in Ukraine in particular. The task of this institution, established on the European model, was to unify church life and to offset its local features according to the program outlined by the Spiritual Regulation at the behest of Peter I. The activities of Synod came into sharp contradiction with the privileges of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine, which it continued to enjoy from the time of its subordination to the Moscow Patriarchate. The Metropolitan of Kyiv was deprived of its decisive status, and its superiors - the title of Metropolitan and the right of free election. The restoration of these rights became the main task for the Ukrainian church elite. Under the reign of Empress Anna Ioanivna, the clergy made a major effort to restore the economic rights of the Church, undermined by the release of Hetman Danylo Apostol in 1728, which, however, were fruitless. The reign of Empress Elizabeth began a new era in the autonomous aspirations of the Ukrainian church elite. In response to the petition of Kyiv Bishop Rafail Zaborovskyi, the Metropolitanate of Kyiv was returned to its former status, and ts head - the title of Metropolitan. At the same time, the attempts to restitute the clergy property rights, as so as the restoration of the jurisdiction of the Kyiv Metropolitanate were unsuccessful. The reign of Catherine II, whose main purpose was the complete centralization in all spheres of the Russian Empire and the secularization of church property, became the most difficult and acute period of confrontation with the Russian imperial regime. The Ukrainian church elite, headed by Metropolitan of Kyiv Arsenii Mohylianskyi, tried to use the preparation of the New Code Commission to assert its rights. This has been proven by petitions to restore the status of the Kyiv Metropolitanate and clergy rights. However, the Commission did not complete its activities and the relicts of the autonomy of the Ukrainian elites were finally buried.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the relations of two major representatives of Russian conservatism of the 19th–20th centuries, – the Ober-Procurator of the Most Hole Synod K.P. Pobedonostsev and publicist V.V. Rozanov. According to the author of the article, those relations revealed not just the personal specifics of both conservatives who initially sympathized with each other both personally and conceptually, but more the principle separation in the conservative camp that happened at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. It reflected both the generational and ideological contradictions in the views. In particular, the young conservatives of the turn of the century challenged the “protective” position of K.P Pobedonostsev demanding more efficient activity of the Church and the State in defending the basics of the existing order. Ideologically the new generation of conservatives believed that under the conditions of the ideological struggle aggravations at the turn of the century the conservative fundamentals need to be more clearly formulated and substantiated, while the Ober-Procurator definitely opposed such steps. In the long run those contradictions resulted in tragic consequences for both the conservatism as social and political trend in Russia, and for the destiny of Russian state system in the 20th century.

Full textAbstract:
This saying is perhaps trustworthy, “Of writing many books on the election, there is no end.” So why another book on this topic? What’s the payoff(s)? One apparent reason is the contentious nature of the idea of election itself, and so no one has written conclusively on this particular issue, as witnessed throughout the history of Christianity. As a contribution to the Reformed, Exegetical, and Doctrinal Studies (REDS) Series, Cornelis Venema believes not only that it is a timely work to commemorate the four-hundredth anniversary of the Synod of Dordrecht and the genesis of the Canons of Dordt, but there are also at least two other motivations for an additional reflection on the topic. First, the doctrine of election is so pervasively taught throughout Scripture, explicitly or implicitly, that it is impossible not to come across the topic as one reads both the Old and New Testament carefully. Second, the doctrine of election is essential in understanding the triune God’s initiative and role in the whole biblical drama of redemption. Venema rightly notes the two practical implications following this second point, that such doctrine would impress upon believers a life of humility as well as a life of thanksgiving and total commitment to glorify God.

Full textAbstract:
The office of bishop is the first, most important, and most responsible office in the Church. This makes it the subject of reflection of theologians and spiritual writers, among which St. Alfonso Maria de Liguori (18th century) stands out. After a short biography and an overview of the Church’s circumstances of de Liguori’s times, the article presents his instructions to bishops on how to govern their Church well. It regards the most important concerns of every bishop (the seminary, ordainees, priests, parish priests, the vicar and close associates, and religious sisters) and the most effective means of a bishop for governing his Church well (prayer, good example, residency, visitations, folk missions, synod, counselling, private audiences, and admonitions). The concluding thoughts show that the figure of the bishop and his office of governing the Church, as described by St. Alfonso, represent a valuable and noteworthy contribution for the modern renewal of bishop’s office as well as for the growth in holiness of bishops of Christ’s Church, and thus of the whole of God’s people. Here, a particular emphasis is placed on the bishop’s responsibility to make informed decisions based on truth telling, and the difference is shown between an informant and a person of truth.

Full textAbstract:
Богослужение, как одна из основных сфер жизни Православной Церкви, регламентируется церковно-правовыми нормами. Основной свод церковно-правовых норм, регулирующих литургическую жизнь Церкви, содержится в корпусе богослужебных книг, которые издаются по благословению Высшей церковной власти Поместной Церкви. Развитие богослужебной практики в Русской Православной Церкви до возникновения старообрядческого раскола находило свое отражение в богослужебных книгах в контексте книжной справы. В Синодальный период истории Русской Церкви существенные изменения в богослужебные книги не вносились в связи с опасениями возникновения нового раскола, хотя богослужебная практика продолжала развиваться. На богослужебную практику Русской Церкви, начиная с ХVIII в., существенное влияние стали оказывать литургические традиции новой столицы - Санкт-Петербурга. Формирование этой традиции связано с деятельностью Придворной певческой капеллы, в обязанности которой входило обеспечение дворцовых церквей церковными хорами. Особый порядок придворного богослужения, существенно сокращённый в сравнении с нормами Типикона, нашёл отражение не в корпусе богослужебных книг, а в нотных сборниках Придворной певческой капеллы. Эти церковно-певческие издания в силу особого статуса «царского хора», по благословению Святейшего Синода, повсеместно распространялись в Русской Церкви как образцовые. Монопольное право Придворной певческой капеллы готовить и аттестовывать регентов церковных хоров ускорило распространение не только придворного распева, но и особенностей придворного литургического устава. Святейший Синод, формально не одобряя придворных нововведений в литургическую практику, способствовал их распространению через церковно-административную поддержку деятельности Придворной певческой капеллы. Divine service is one of the main spheres of the life of the Orthodox Church, so it is regulated by the church law. The main code for the liturgical life of the Church can be found within the corpus of liturgical books which are edited with the blessing of the higher authorities of the Local Churches. In the Russian Orthodox Church, before the Old Ritualist schism, the development of the liturgical practice was reflected in the service-books in the context of the Revision of the Books (Rus.: knizhnaya sprava). During the Synodal period the service-books did not see any meaningful change because of the fear of a new schism; nevertheless, the liturgical practice continued to develop. In the 18th century and later, Russian Orthodox liturgical practice was being considerably influenced by the liturgical tradition of the new capital - St. Petersburg. This tradition was formed due to the Court Choral Capella (or, otherwise, Court Choral Chapel), which was to provide court churches with choirs. The particular court liturgical rite, much shorter than the one prescribed by the Typikon, was not reflected in the corpus of service-books but in the musical books of the Court Choral Capella. These church-choral editions, as they had a brand of the «Imperial choir», with the blessing of the Most Holy Synod were spread throughout all the Russian Church as exemplary patterns. The exclusive right of the Court Capella to train and assess precentors precipitated the spreading not only of the court chant, but also of the particular features of the court liturgical order. The Most Holy Synod, while formally disapproving the court innovations in the liturgical practice, was in fact facilitating their promotion, by giving administrative support to the activity of the Court Capella.

This article analyzes importance of the Roman Catholic Church in Volhynia in the interwar period. The article reveals the process of formation of the Roman Catholic Church in Volhynia, and special attention is paid to the interwar period.Roman Catholic centres were in Volhynia from ancient times, and have become an integral part of its history. As the city was inhabited by many different nationalities and, consequently, many different religious denominations, the city managed to maintain peace and respect for religious freedom for each of the communities. However, during the reign of the Russian Empire in Volhynia, the situation became more complicated because the tsarist government did not want to support previous agreements with the Church.After the October coup and the war, vast territories of the Lutsk-Zhytomyr diocese were divided between Poland and Soviet Russia by a treaty signed in 1921 in Riga. As Lutsk was a part of the then Poland, in 1925 Pope Pius XI revived a separate diocese of Lutsk.On December 14, 1925, Bishop Adolf Petro Shelonzhek was appointed Bishop of Lutsk. In particular, the figure of Adolf Petro Shelonzhek deserves special attention. The article also analyzes the life of the future bishop. From the beginning of his ministry, the Lutsk Ordinary carried out active pastoral and organizational activities. One of the greatest achievements of Adolf Petro Shelonzhek was the convening of the first diocesan synod in 200 years, which took place in 1927.Particular importance is the description of his active work as a religious and political figure. Special attention is paid to his active pastoral work as Adolf Petro Shelonzhek was an outstanding figure in the life of the Lutsk diocese.

Full textAbstract:
<p>This article aims to analyse canon 5 of the Synod of Elvira (beginning of the 4<sup>th</sup> century) taking into account the norms of Roman law concerning the legal protection of slaves. This canon provided for the punishment of repentance and a prohibition of giving Eucharistic Communion to a woman who, in anger caused by jealousy, caused the death of her slave as a result of whipping. It was probably adopted based on a certain, particularly shocking matter, perhaps related to the intimate life between the master and her slave. The content of the canon suggests that the person responsible for its editing was familiar with Roman law, including probably in particular Emperor Hadrian’s rescripts – especially those addressed to the Governor of Baetica, where Elvira was located. The canon provided slaves with a wider scope of protection than the norms of Roman law did, both those in force at the time of its release and later introduced by Emperor Constantine the Great. It was also an expression of the generally discernible attitude of Christian communities towards the institutions of slavery. On the one hand, the existence of slavery was accepted and, on the other hand, there were efforts to improve the situation of slaves, especially if they were Christians.</p>

Full textAbstract:
The article analyzes the structure and information potential of the annual reports on the conditions of the Orenburg and Omsk dioceses to the Holy Synod, prepared science 1870 to 1917. It is emphasized that this set of paperwork is a unique source on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church in the Central Asian outskirts of the Russian Empire and reflects virtually all spheres of life and activities of the dioceses, their institutional and administrative-territorial development, processes of the deanery, church, parish, church and monastery construction. The information capabilities of the reports make it possible to reconstruct a whole range of social, economic, demographic, and migration processes that took place within the boundaries of a particular diocese. That is why the author assigns diocesan reports to the type of “mixed type” paperwork on the basis that they contain information of a normative, narrative and statistical nature. Analysis of reports on the state of the Orenburg and Omsk dioceses allow us to conclude that the 1880s the first decade of the 20th century began a period of active development in the Steppe Territory institutions, the administrative-territorial management system of the Russian Orthodox Church. This was largely due to a sharp increase in the number of Orthodox population in the region, mediated by mass peasant migration.

By analyzing baptism, which is regarded as the first Catholic sacrament, this text focuses on the creation of norms for particular spaces and how this process incorporates juridical and theological traditions. At the same time, the text confronts this analysis with the baptismal records of the freguesia of Fortaleza during the 18th century, in order to verify if this formal regulation actually was put into practice.

Full textAbstract:
A colegialidade episcopal constitui um dos mais importantes temas eclesiológicos do Concílio Vaticano II. Com o intuito de fazer contrapeso ao ensinamento do Concílio Vaticano I sobre o ministério petrino, os Padres conciliares, no Vaticano II, acentuaram o valor no episcopado e explicitaram a forma colegial como aquela própria do governo eclesiástico. É de se lamentar, contudo, que os caminhos abertos pelo Vaticano II em termos de colegialidade episcopal não tenham sido ainda trilhados, o que traria frutos para a vida eclesial como um todo, e para o progresso do ecumenismo em particular. Já passados quarenta anos da conclusão do Vaticano II, as Conferências Episcopais não gozam da autonomia que mereceriam enquanto lugar natural de se praticar a colegialidade, e o Sínodo dos Bispos, por seu turno, não se tem mostrado como instrumento apto a promover uma maior comunhão entre os prelados e, conseqüentemente, entre as Igrejas locais.ABSTRACT: Episcopal collegiality constitutes one of the most important ecclesiological themes of Vatican II. In order to counterbalance Vatican I teachings on the Petrine ministry, during the Vatican II the conciliar Fathers emphasized the camvalue of the episcopacy and the collegiality as the way of ecclesiastical government. It is regrettable, however, that the ways opened by the Vatican II in terms of Episcopal collegiality have not been trod yet. This would have bore fruits to the ecclesial life as a whole, and to the progress of ecumenism in particular. It has been forty years since the Vatican II conclusion and the Episcopal Conferences do not enjoy the autonomy they would deserve as natural place of practicing the collegiality. Similarly, the Synod of Bishops has not been working as an apt instrument to promote a greater communion among the prelates and, consequently, among the local Churches.

Using mainly historical-comparative and historical-genetic methods, the question of the interaction of secular power in the person of the governor of the Vyatka province N. A. Troinitsky and the spiritual power in the person of Bishop of the Vyatka and Sloboda provinces Apollos (Belyaev) in terms of resolving the issue of opening a brotherhood in the Vyatka province to work with Old Believers, is raised in the article. In this work, on the basis of archival materials, the process of preparation for the opening of the Vyatka brotherhood of St. Nicholas the Miracle Worker in the city of Vyatka in 1882 is considered. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of the position of the Bishop of Vyatka and Sloboda Apollos regarding the creation of the Vyatka brotherhood. In the course of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that Bishop Apollos was a supporter of the initiative of Archpriest Stephen Kashmensky in terms of creating a brotherhood, but at the same time sought to limit the material base of the brotherhood and create a brotherhood without funding from the consistory. As a result, through the Chief Prosecutor of the Holy Synod K. P. Pobedonostsev, the misunderstanding between the secular and spiritual authorities of the Vyatka province was eliminated, and in the fall of 1882, with the blessing of the Bishop of Vyatka and Sloboda Apollos, the Vyatka brotherhood of St. Nicholas the Miracle Worker was established.

Full textAbstract:
This publication examines the unexplored topic of the Senate jurisprudence regarding the legal status of Lutheran priests in the Baltic States at the end of the XIX century. The author defines the significance of the policy of state pressure on Protestant pastors in the context of the general attack of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Synod on non-Orthodox religious organizations under K. Pobedonostsev. Consideration of the issue from the position of the higher court of the Empire has not previously been undertaken in the scientific literature. During the preparation of the work, mainly narrative material was used the memoirs of the Chief Prosecutor of the Senate. Due to the small number of cases and the semi-secret nature, the materials of the Senate were not particularly reflected in the collections of decisions and sentences. The problem-chronological approach was applied to study this subject. As a result, the reasons of the weak pressure on Protestant pastors the author associates with the deep rootedness of Lutheranism in the popular environment, the brutal activity of the police and the church, fears of a quarrel with the Lutheran countries of Europe, etc. Few sentences against pastors who seduced the Orthodox into another faith reached the Criminal Cassation Department of the Senate, where they met with resistance a group of senators led by the famous lawyer, humanist A.F. Koni. Among the numerous schismatic and sectarian affairs that A.F. Koni, as chief prosecutor and senator, draw attention to the so-called pastoral affairs, which have not been sufficiently researched in the domestic scientific literature, and yet they well illustrate the church-state policy of the Russian state on the outskirts of the empire on the eve of the first Russian revolution. The author concludes that pastoral affairs are interesting not only from the point of view of the struggle of Russian infidels and the domestic educated intelligentsia for freedom of conscience in Russia, but they also allow to look from the inside at the work of the bureaucratic apparatus of the empire, to understand the work (internal kitchen) of the Governing Senate: internal intrigues, the indirect influence of the monarch and the chief prosecutor of the Holy Synod on senators and, accordingly, the decision on religious matters, informal consultations of the Minister of Justice with the chief prosecutor of the criminal cassation department (probing the atmosphere in the case, including through an intermediary), the selection of a senator-rapporteur on a particular important case, etc. Thanks to A.F. Koni, attempts to persecute pastors did not develop, and after 1900 the persecution of priests on religious grounds in the Baltics stopped. The subject is interesting and requires further development and study.
