Cuore, anima e mente. Un esempio di circolarità lessicale tra tradizione islamica e cristiana
2018
The starting point of this article is a topic that features in the synoptic Gospels (Mt 22, 37; Mc 12, 29-31; Lc 10, 27) and is presented as the most essential among Jesus’ precepts: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind”. The three terms that are mentioned here – heart, soul, and mind – are of prominent importance both in the Christian and Islamic spiritual traditions. We compare them and the respective traditions of commentary both on a lexicographical and exegetical level. The analysis of similarities and differences issued from a comparison of the contexts of the exegeses, and the respective reactions to the common Biblical background,…
Zarys biblijno-teologicznego rozwoju poznania tajemnicy trynitarnej
2015
Rozpoznawanie tajemnicy Trójcy Osób Świętych dokonywało się przez wieki i przechodziło różne koleje dociekań ludzkiego rozumu. Na początku niniejszej refleksji zostały ukazane wysiłki ludzkiego rozumu i wiary, których ślady możemy odnaleźć już w księgach Starego, a potem Nowego Testamentu. Kontynuację tych starań podjęli Ojcowie Kościoła, następnie sobory i całe Magisterium, aż do czasów nam współczesnych (m.in. H. Mühlen), kiedy to próbowano odnajdywać istotne wskazania dla wspólnoty małżeńskiej wynikające z prawd odkrywanych dzięki Trójjedynemu.

Imagery and Religious Conversion. The Symbolic Function of Jonah 1:13
2018
Jonah 1:13 has a delaying function in the narrative, introducing a pause between Jonah’s demand to be thrown in the sea (1:12) and the event’s occurrence (1:15). Most commentators discuss only the events of 1:13 and their causes. In this article, I suggest an interpretation of Jonah 1:13 based on the imagery of the narrative. An analysis of the use of metaphors and symbols does not replace the message of the verse; such an analysis simply augments it with motives of the seamen’s conversion. Beside the narrative level, there is a hidden level suggesting a deeper understanding of the story where symbols and metaphors have a consolidating function. Distance, directions, and movement in Jonah 1…
