The purpose of the article is to indicate sources for the textual commentary of the 1593 Jakub Wujek’s New Testament translation. This issue will be shown by the example of Acts 2:14–36. In his translation work, the Jesuit used the 1582 Rheims New Testament in English and a Latin commentary by Robert Bellarmine entitled Disputationes Christianae Fidei. The problem of sources for the Wujek’s New Testament translation was until now almost completely unresearched or researched erroneously. However, the collation of Wujek’s commentary with the commentaries from Bellamine’s work and the Rheims New Testament led to surprising results: Jakub Wujek, one of the most distinguished sixteenth-century biblical translators, most probably knew English and his textual commentary on the 1593 New Testament is a compilation of texts of the two above-mentioned works. This means that as a commentator Wujek was largely reproductive and dependent on sources and he did not use the works of the Church Fathers directly, but quoted passages from the already existing compendia.

Celem artykułu jest wskazanie źródeł dla komentarza tekstowego Nowego Testamentu w tłumaczeniu Jakuba Wujka z 1593 r. Zagadnienie zostanie przedstawione na przykładzie Dz 2, 14–36. Jezuita w pracy translatorskiej posłużył się angielskim Nowym Testamentem z Rheims z 1582 r. i łacińskim komentarzem Roberta Bellarmina pt. Disputationes Christianae Fidei. Kwestia źródeł dla Nowego Testamentu w tłumaczeniu Wujka była do tej pory niemal zupełnie niezbadana albo rozpoznana błędnie. Tymczasem zestawienie komentarza Wujkowego z komentarzami z dzieła Bellarmina i Nowym Testamentem z Rheims doprowadziło do zaskakujących rezultatów: Jakub Wujek, jeden z najwybitniejszych tłumaczy biblijnych XVI w., najprawdopodobniej znał język angielski, a jego komentarz tekstowy do Nowego Testamentu z 1593 r. stanowi kompilację tekstów dwóch wyżej wymienionych dzieł. To oznacza, że jako komentator Wujek był w ogromnym stopniu odtwórczy i zależny od źródeł, i nie korzystał bezpośrednio z dzieł Ojców Kościoła, ale cytował ich fragmenty z gotowych już kompendiów. The purpose of the study is to indicate the sources for a textual commentary to the New Testament in Jakub Wujek’s translation of 1593. The problem is presented on the example of the Acts 2:14–36. The Jesuit in his translatory work used the English Rheims New Testament of 1582, and Robert Bellarmine’s Latin commentary entitled Disputationes Christianae Fidei. The question of sources for the New Testament in Jakub Wujek’s translation has been almost completely unexplored or explored incorrectly. A comparative analysis of Wujek’s commentary with that of Bellarmine’s and of the Rheims New Testament has led to surprising conclusions: that Jakub Wujek, one of the most outstanding Bible translators in the sixteenth century, probably knew English, and his textual commentary to the New Testament of 1593 is a compilation of the two abovementioned texts. This means that as a Bible commentator Wujek was imitative and dependent on secondary sources, as he did not use texts by Church Fathers, but relied on quotations from their writings he found in other compendia.
