Fruits of Good and Evil in David's Family
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 429-445
|
|
he theological point of view seeing in historical events a realization
of God's plan with simultaneous full consideration of man's freedom
served as the guiding principle of the narratives of David's royal
period. David's history as well as the histories of his children
were closely connected to his sins of adultery and murder. David
himself condemned his deed and was pardoned. His sin, however,
was repeated in his children. Their sins were acts of their own
volition and were punished in their own right. At the same time
David was punished by them for his sin. Yet David was forgiven
and reformed thereby. Thus, the narrative about David raised strong
hopes in Israel suffering in exile as a punishment for the apostasies
it had committed.

Historical Dimension of Theology
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 447-458
|
|
History speaks about Him who it should actually be silent about.
And yet anybody dealing with theology knows that it has to speak
about Him; by its nature, theology is a word about God referring
man to the word God speaks about himself. The theological word
speaks silently and is eloquently silent, listens questioningly
and ask questions in a listening manner. It is a word that asks
questions and answers them at the same time. As human discussion
theo-logy speaks with man as its starting point; yet it is only
real theology when it is prepared to start from what God said
about himself; >Omnis recta cognitio Dei ab oboedientia nascitur<
(Kalvin). So theology is a border word between the departure (exodus)
being the human condition in perpetually seeking and expecting
a greater mystery and the arrival (adventus) when God's word and
God's silence started to exist in human time. Thus, history is
a bridge holding together two different movements in permanent
asymmetry. The historical dimension is an original and constituent
element of theology inasmuch as theology is more a "wis-dom
of love" than an aristocratic >love of wisdom<. Key words:
God of revelation, theology of silence, theology of history, departure
(exodus), arrival (adventus), hope.

Edith Stein: Expérience de la Croix et philosophie du salut
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 459-476
|
|
L'auteur fait une réflexion sur l'oeuvre et la vie d'Edith Stein.
Ce qui, pour elle, ŕ la fin de sa vie, se rassemble en une science
de la Croix, l' auteur voudrait le diviser en deux formules dont
les termes sont, en fait, interchangeables, et constituent presque
une forme de chiasme. >Expériance de la Croix et philosphie du
Salut<, cela indique le mouvement d'une vie qui avance au rythme
permanent d'une expériance qui donne le salut parce qu'elle est
une réflexion inccessante, un retournement constant, par la philosophie,
sur ce qui la fait de plus en plus adherer au mystĺre de la Croix.
Telle est donc la ligne directrice de son article: dégager, dans
la vie d'Edith Stein, les interférences, il n'y a pas, dans sa
vie de croix qui ne soit salut ni de salut qui ne se rattache
ŕ la Croix.

Modern Psychoanalytical View of Religion
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 477-499
|
|
Object-relation theory with its concepts of man's inborn wish
to be in relation with the Other also opens the idea of the "real
object", the Infinite, called the "intrapsychic picture
of God" by psychoanalysis. These psychologists and psychoanalysts
argue that the deep human longing for being in relation in its
very core points to the direction of God, who satisfies this universal
need and has also an objective existence (and not just a psychological
one). In this treatise the author has tried, on the basis of psychology
and psychoanalysis, to outline the possible existence of a transcendent
Other, for whom the religious person maintains that he is somebody
real. In human experiencing it is also possible to discern a deep
or even inborn wish or longing for the sacred or the religious,
which basically presupposes a real existence of God himself.

Religious Literature Published in the Dajnčica Script
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 501-525
|
|
160 years have passed since the use of the dajnčica script was
prohibited in schools in 1838. However, in the period from 1824
to 1838 about 50 000 copies of books were published in this script
and the present article deals with the types and contents of religious
literature published in dajnčica. There is presented the complete
religious literature (bibliography) by Peter Dajnko (1787-1873)
and by his supporters Anton Lah (1803-1861), Vid Rižner (1893-1861),
Anton Šerf (1798-1882), and Martin Veršič (1779-1850), also those
works that were not published in dajnčica. The wide range of pious
literature in dajnčica is categorized as follows: homiletics,
translations of the evangelistary, catechisms, prayer books, hymn
book and educational books. Peter Dajnko and those sharing his
views covered an incredibly wide field of pious literature and
thus conveyed to their fellow countrymen almost all types of religious
literature. Dajnko also provided a translation of the complete
Mass canon and of Mass prayers for holidays, which made his translation
one of the pioneering translations of the Mass canon into the
living colloquial language.

Regional Laws of the Church in Slovenia
Bogoslovni vestnik 59 (1999), 527-552
|
|
The first treatise of the series entitled Regional Laws of the
Church in Slovenia deals with four of the twenty-five canons of
the Code of Church Law (CCL) that the Slovenian Bishops' Conference
has defined in more detail by regional laws, namely: can. 8, §2
CCL (concerning the manner of publishing regional laws passed
by the Slovenian Bishops' Conference), can. 230, §3 CCL (concerning
the ways and conditions of appointing lay men in the permanent
office of lector or mass server), can. 236, point 2 CC (concerning
the restoration of permanent diaconate as instructed by Vatican
II and by later documents of the Apostolic Sea as well as concerning
the conditions to be fulfilled by the candidates for permanent
diaconate), and can. 279, §2, point 3 (concerning the duty of
praying the daily Divine Office for permanent deacons). Further
treatises will explain further canons of CCL that have been specially
formulated and specified by the Slovenian Bishop's Conference.
