The three Synoptic Gospels narrate the story of Jesus’ healing of Simon’s mother in-law as a part of their account of the beginnings of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee. The focus of this article are the christological contours of the three variants, that is, differences in their portrayal of Jesus. To highlight the uniqueness of each evangelist in regard to the christological aspect of the story, the article employs a combination of lexical analysis, synoptic comparison, and semantic approach. It seeks to identify the significance of the changes made by Matthew and Luke vis-à-vis their Marcan counterpart, and sketch the christological profile of each evangelist.

In 2013 the Slovak Conference of Catholic Bishops initiated the work on a new translation of the Bible based on original languages. Biblical scholars in Slovakia, especially members of the Centre for the Study of Biblical and Near Eastern World in Košice, have recently launched a project of the translation of Paul’s authentic letters, guided by the insights of the most recent exegetical literature. As a sample of their work, this article shows the challenges faced by a translator of Paul, especially semantic and syntactic ambiguity. It does so with the example of the epistolary praescriptio of Romans (1,1-7).

This essay focuses on the theme of Jesus’ corporality in the Fourth Gospel. While Johannine studies rightly tend to underline the various ways in which John communicates Jesus’ divinity and union with the Father, this gospel is also filled with texts that stress Jesus’ humanity. From the prologue to the resurrection scenes Jesus periodically appears not only as fully human, but also as fully bodily. The introductory part of the article traces some of the occurrences of the motif of Jesus’ humanity/corporality. In the attempt to point up their significance and function, the two main parts then identify the texts which describe Jesus’ body parts and his physical postures. The essay notes John’s particular interest in drawing attention to Jesus’ body parts and postures, a feature that contributes to John’s being „a maverick Gospel“ that continues to fascinate its readers. As the Son of God in constant communion with the Father, Jesus, as portrayed in John, emerges as a fully human and bodily person.

The year 2020 has seen the publication of a new Slovak translation of Luke’s Gospel, produced within an APVV project under the auspices of the Slovak Academy of Sciences. Based on the most recent exegetical research on Luke, the new translation diverges from the existing Slovak translations in various, more or less significant aspects. This short contribution focuses on the text of Zechariah’s hymn in Luke 1, 68 – 79, analyzes its syntactical structure, and furnishes the grammatical and exegetical reasons for the new translation. It thus provides the reader with a sample text of the new translation and includes a comparison with selected modern translations.

In addition to its other peculiarities, First Thessalonians features a relatively high number of faith terms. Apart from the paraenetical section, the remaining parts of the letter contain faith terminology in their various literary contexts, primarily in the genitival expression “your faith” in reference to the personal faith of the Thessalonians. This article, an exegetical study based on the principles of epistolary, rhetorical, and semantic approach, offers an analysis of the faith terminology of First Thessalonians, followed by a brief reflection on faith in light of the exegetical results. Its main conclusion suggests that good reasons exist for viewing Paul’s first writing as a letter of faith.
