The study focuses on the reflection of Jewish-Slavic relations in the work of Alexander Dukhnovych (Oleksander Dukhnovych). The researched author was Greek Catholic priest – representative of the Eastern Religious Rite (Byzantine). In his drama Добродітель превишаєт багатство (1850), the figure of the Jewish innkeeper appears. In the context of the work, he is a negative character. In the picture of him we can identify elements of stereotyping. I briefly present the history of the Jews in Eastern Slovakia, where Dukhnovych lived. The role of priests in the middle of the 19th century and their motivation in writing educational prose is described. The aim of such writings, which were written mostly by the clergy during the mentioned period, was not to stir up passions. The task of didactic works was to educate people and to warn them against the harmful influence of alcoholism. Dukhnovych was one of the first writers to draw attention to the issue of alcoholism in areal literature.
