One of the crucial stages of the Apostle Paul’s ministry was his stay at Ephesus. However, considering the fact that the reliability of some data in the Acts of the Apostles on the time of Paul’s arrival to Ephesus is nowadays frequently put into question, it has become necessary to investigate the issue. In the present article the author assesses the relevant source material and takes a stand on the particular opinions of contemporary interpreters of the subject. Based on an analysis of the text of the Acts of the Apostles he is led to conclude that Luke’s account of Paul’s first short visit to Ephesus reveals traits of historicity.

The conflict over the title given to Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ, in fact the Christological dispute, involved the most important doctrinal issues considered in the fifth century. In turn, the message of Socrates from Constantinople, referring to the origin and course of this controversy, is the oldest source known to us, which gives an account on this subject. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Ecclesiastical History of Socrates from the point of view of its author on the course of events related to the dispute over the title Theotokos to which the teaching of Nestorius led. Socrates was very critical of the actions taken by Nestorius from the first days of his pontificate, seeing him as a troublemaker who was right punished at the Council of Ephesus. Nevertheless, he did not see Nestorius as a heretic, but seemed to accept the judgment of the Council of Ephesus which recognized him as such. Regarding the title Theotokos, he accepted the teaching of Origen. He mainly accused Nestorius of lack of education. Nestorius' opponents in Constantinople were also, according to Socrates, the wise men who knew how to reason correctly, which makes it possible to connect them with the circle of Troilos Sophist.

Konflikt o tytuł przysługujący Maryi, Matce Jezusa Chrystusa - Theotokos, w rzeczywistości spór chrystologiczny, dotyczył najważniejszych kwestii doktrynalnych rozpatrywanych w piątym wieku. Przekaz Sokratesa z Konstantynopola odnoszący się do genezy i przebiegu owej kontrowersji jest zaś najstarszym znanym nam źródłem zdającym relację na ten temat. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza Historii kościelnej Sokratesa pod kątem punktu widzenia jej autora na bieg wydarzeń związanych ze sporem o Theotokos. Sokrates bardzo krytycznie oceniał działania podejmowane przez Nestoriusza od pierwszych dni jego pontyfikatu, widząc w nim wichrzyciela, którego spotkała na soborze w Efezie (431) słuszna kara. Niemniej nie widział w Nestoriuszu heretyka, ale wydawał się akceptować wyrok soboru w Efezie, który za takiego go uznał. W sprawie tytułu Theotokos przyjmował nauczanie Orygenesa. Zarzucał głównie Nestoriuszowi brak wykształcenia. Jak się wydaje nie było w tym przypadku. Sokrates podkreślał wszak, że w opozycji do Nestoriusza stanęli też ludzie mądrzy, umiejący rozumować poprawnie, co pozwala łączyć ich ze środowiskiem Troilosa Sofisty, obdarzanego przez historyka wielką atencją.

The note about Paul’s hurry for the day of Pentecost in Acts 20, 16 arouses numerous doubts. Authors think that Luke hides the actual reason while he sailed past Ephesus, for in itself it is paradoxical; the calling of the presbyters at Miletus postponed the journey even more. Studying the redaction in which we find the above note, and then the tradition from which it has stemmed out, make us look at Luke as a reliable narrator of Paul’s itinerary in 20:1-38. The reason why Paul sailed past Ephesus seems to be in accordance with the historical realities.
