This article presents an exegesis of John 20:23: If you forgive people’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you hold them they are held fast. Traditionally them refers to sins, and exegetical basis for this interpretation was reading John 20:23 (with the eliptical antithetical parallelism) as parallel of Matt 16:19 and 18:18. However the grammatical and lexical structure of John 20:23 suggests that v. 23a and 23b is a synthetic (progressive) parallel. In the Johannine com¬munities and in first three centuries of Christianity John 20:23 was not understood as the scriptural account of the institution of the sacrament of Penance that can only be administered by the ordained ministers. This text may be an allusion to baptism First of all, John 20:23 is a missionary command to the disciples. They have the power (v. 22: Receive the Holy Spirit) and right to preach the forgiveness of sins and entry into the community of believers (cf. Matt 28:19; Mark 16:16; Luke 24:47).

The article presents analysis of those fragments of Jesus’ ministry in the Gospel of Mark that were directed exclusively to the addresses referred to as “Disciples and/or the Twelve. The frames for these teachings are contained in the Parable of the Sower (Mk 4,11-20) and in the Mission Speech (Mk 16, 15-17). The parable and its explanation, that may be called Jesus’ programme speech, assume their final and appropriate meanings when combined with the Mission Order. The Mission Order, on the other hand, interpreted in the light of expla-nation of the Parable of the Sower, takes into consideration variants of the Sower’s identity present in the Parable, circumstances of Gospel preaching and reactions to the conveyed contents.

The article presents an analysis of the text of Mk 9,49-50 confronted with the parallel texts from Mt and Lk. The context of the metaphor related to salt in Mk makes it possible to trace the source of the metaphor in the Old Testament descriptions of sacrificial actions. The evangelist primarily emphasizes positive attributes of salt. Just as a small amount of salt can significantly improve the taste of food, so kindness and peace have a positive impact on the relationship in the community of the disciples of Jesus.

W artykule przedstawiono różnice w znaczeniu greckich terminów oznaczających piersi – sth/qoj (odnoszące się zazwyczaj do klatki piersiowej oraz piersi męskich) i mastoi, (odnoszące się najczęściej do piersi kobiecych) oraz ich kontekst biblijny. W postaci podobnej do Syna Człowieka w Księdze Objawienia 1.13 użyto terminu mastoi,. Arcybiskup Jan Maria Michał Kowalski (1871–1942) – tłumacz Biblii używanej w Katolickim Kościele Mariawitów oraz w Starokatolickim Kościele Mariawitów – zauważył tę różnicę i zidentyfikował postać w Księdze Objawienia jako żeńską. Zdaniem Kowalskiego ktoś podobny do Syna Człowieczego obleczonego w szatę ze złotym pierścieniem wokół piersi to Maria Franciszka Kozłowska (zwana Mateczką), założycielka Mariawitów. Identyfikacja ta ma konsekwencje dla teologii, soteriologii, eschatologii i trynitologii.

This article presents the differences in meaning of the Greek terms sth/qoj and mastoi, and their biblical contexts. In the description of the figure similar to the Son of Man in Revelation 1,13 was used the term mastoi,. Archbishop Jan Maria Michał Kowalski (1871-1942) – the translator of the Bible used in the Catholic Mariavite Church and in the Old Catholic Mariavite Church noticed this difference, and identified the figure in the Book of Revelation as female. According to Kowalski someone like a son of man dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his breast is the founder of the Mariavitism – Feliksa Maria Franciszka Kozlowska (called by the Mariavites the Little Mother). This identification had consequences for mariavite theology – soteriology, eschatology and trinitology.

Ewangelia Marka od XVIII wieku powszechnie uważana jest za najstarszą z ewangelii kanonicznych, a wśród ewangelii kanonicznych dodatkowo za najstarszą z tzw. ewangelii synoptycznych. Często też traktowana jest jako źródło bądź jedno ze źródeł dla tekstów Mateusza i Łukasza, którzy przekaz Markowy uzupełniają, skracają, a bardzo często też uściślają i poprawiają nie tylko pod względem stylistycznym, ale także rzeczowym – w tym historycznym i geograficznym. Współczesna biblistyka próbuje ustalić pochodzenie, przyczynę i zasadność tych korekt, biorąc pod uwagę zarówno etapy redakcji, struktury tekstu, jak i kompetencje odbiorcze oraz świadomość teologiczną, historyczną i geograficzną adresatów poszczególnych ewangelii. Celem prezentowanego artykułu jest konfrontacja wzmianek topograficznych zawartych w Ewangelii Marka z rzeczywistymi danymi geograficznymi oraz wskazanie funkcji, jakie wzmianki te pełnią w strukturze i kompozycji utworu oraz w jego teologicznym przesłaniu. Podstawowym materiałem badawczym jest grecki tekst Ewangelii wraz z aparatem krytycznym (NA 28); dominantę metodologiczną stanowi krytyka redakcji (redaction criticism) wraz z analizą lingwistyczną.

This article reconstructs the picture of the movements of Jesus since John’s baptizing until the journey to Jerusalem. There are geographical and chronological problems connected with the Gospel of Mark. In many instances the evangelist does not know where and when incidents took place. The topographical data are likewise confused and contradictory. The evangelist emphasizes the contrast between the apparent aimlessness of Jesus’ movements and ministry in the earlier period in Galilee (Mk 1:1–6:29) and the plan of the later periodes. In second part (Mk 6:30–9:1) Mark possessed two divergent but paralel accounts of the events following the return of the Twelve. The third part (Mk 9:2–11:11) is the journey of Jesus from Cesarea Philippi to Jerusalem, and the fourth part are the evants in Jerusalem. In Jerusalem Mark’s topographical notations are also never detailed and informative.

Grzech – zemsta szatana?

It is commonly known that the Bible does not contain systematic hamartiology or satanology.Also the Biblical demonology depends on the historical development and the influence of neighbouring countries’ relig-ions.This article’s aim is to analyse the etymology and meaning of the con-cept of satan in the most popular texts directly referring to the figure of Satan (Book of Job 6 and Book of Zechariah 3).The author tried to confront fragments from the Job and Zechariah with the texts that were (re)interpreted satanologically in the intertestamental period and by early Christian theology (Isaiah 14,12-14 and Ezekiel 28,12-15) and also with the narration contained in Genesis 3, which is considered the key text concerning the so-called „fall” of man in the Christian theology. The analysis was completed by references to intertestamental texts.A text that proved particularly helpful in the reconstruction of the aetiology of sin was Adam's Repentance, known under various titles thanks to its copies in various languages, which represents the so-called Adamite tradition in theology (hamartiology). A number of similarities between the syncretic Biblical hamartiology and Adam’s Repentance were shown (among others, the common nature of the first sin committed by Satan and the first sin committed by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden).

The article presents Martin Luther, the Reformer as a musician and theologian of music. From his early age, Luther played the lute well, later on also the flute and sang.When Luther studied in Eisenach, he had music lessons. Because music was taught in a mathematical manner, Luther acquired good understanding of the theory of harmonics. He learned to distinguish between different musical genres. In the monastery, already as a monk, he could refine his skills. Later on Lutherwas able to transcribe and adapt folk melodies (contrafactum) and to harmonise them as well as to write music for psalms. The Reformer himself composed 36 hymns for German texts. As Luther reformed the liturgy, he accorded full importance to the sermon as well as to community singing. The singing was defined as an assertion of faith and spiritual commentary on biblical texts.Music was at the heart of the Lutheran Reformation. Luther’s theology of music is formed through the conviction that music is a particularly beautiful and unique offering of the divine creation. „Music is a gift from God and next to theology” – wrote Luther.Music also moves human hearts. To bring people joy and to praise the Lord is the music’s true task and service.

This text is a critical review from the Biblicist’s perspective of the document “In the beginning there was the Word” The Bible in the Life of the Lutheran Communion by the Lutheran Communion. We should be glad that the Lutheran Communion issued such a compendium of Lutheran hermeneutics and interpretation of the Bible. Probably for some it is too general, too “politically correct” or too inclusive. A Biblicist observes some methodological deficits, although he may be satisfied with the repeated postulate of constant Bible translation and taking into account liturgical, philological, exegetic and ministerial objectives in the translation. The document also proposes a widely understood Biblical education.
