Nierozerwalność małżeństwa w Starym Testamencie
Basiuk, Maciej; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
When asked about the possibility of divorcing wife, Jesus answered Pharisees: “Because of your hardness of heart, Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way” (Matt. 19:8). The Old Testament texts, beginning from Genesis, through Prophets and to the wisdom literature, prove that indeed the ideal marriage planned by God was indissoluble.
Świątynia jerozolimska jako miejsce pielgrzymowania w czasach Starego i Nowego Testamentu
Mielcarek, Krzysztof; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The paper searches some historical details on pilgrimage customs and celebrations in the Temple of Jerusalem in the times of the Old and New Testament. The study is divided into three natural periods: (1) Salomonic Temple, (2) so called Second Temple times, (3) and post-Temple Judaism. The Jerusalem Temple has been important to Israelites all these years, but customs and celebrations have been evolving. Each of them has got its specifics. At first, one can observe a growing religious esteem of what once was main local sanctuary visited spontaneously from time to time. After the Exile, when the king was no more, the position of the Temple was even higher and certain times of visiting Jerusalem were considered mandatory (Pesach, Pentecost, Sukkot). The custom of visiting Jerusalem did not cease after the Temple was destroyed. The celebrations became sober and sorrowful, yet they continued throughout the centuries.
Kościół jako reszta potomstwa kobiety-Izraela w świetle Ap 12
Siemieniec, Tomasz; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The basis for the analyses made in this essay is the interpretation of the figure of the Woman in Rev 12 as a symbol of Israel which brings forth the Messiah. By this event, Israel’s role in the history of salvation is over. It is pointed out by the Woman’s departure into the desert, which refers to the departure of Hagar in the moment when Isaac, the legal successor-to-be of Abraham, was born. This essay proposes that the Church be seen not as the Woman but as “the Rest of her offspring” mentioned in Rev 12:17. This description refers to the OT idea of the “Rest of Israel”. What defines “the Rest” is obeying God’s commandments and keeping the testimony of Jesus. These descriptions show that the identity of the Church is shaped primarily by faithfulness to the commandments. This faithfulness should be understood in the current of the Johannine tradition, stressing not only on keeping the Decalogue or the commandment of mutual love, but on maintaining steadfast faith in Jesus. The second attribute of “the Rest” is to hold the testimony of Jesus in its double meaning: the testimony brought by Jesus (i.e. the revelation given by Him) on the one side, and the testimony about Jesus (made by the community), on the other side. All this is connected with keeping “the paschal memory about Jesus”. It doesn’t mean “a passive” keeping of Jesus’ testimony, but an active one, i.e. the one which influences the life of the Church.
Nieczystość seksu – biblijne zakazy dotyczące życia płciowego
Majewski, Marcin; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
This is my next paper about impurity in the Hebrew Bible. In the previous papers, I discussed the legislation about dietary laws (clean and unclean animals) and impurity of death in the Torah. In this paper I examine impurity of sex. In each of these cases I propose my own hypothesis about the criterion for these cultic exclusions. The thesis is that the laws of impurity in the Bible are related to the paradigm of creation in Genesis 1 and the ideas contained therein. If the worship of the Lord in the Tabernacle has to reproduce an exemplary, paradisiac situation of man’s encounter with God, each impurity constitutes a transgression of Eden’s ideal order. Therefore, it cannot be tolerated in the sphere of worship.
Skarb w glinianym naczyniu (2Kor 4,7-15)
Paciorek, Antoni; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Using the image of the treasure in the earthen vessel, Apostle Paul explains the Corinthians’ nature of his Ministry. The weakness of the Messenger does not disqualify his message, but rather it is a sign of the divine origin of the messages. This does not mean, of course, that God’s power can manifest itself only in human weakness. On the contrary, there is the link between the human experience of suffering and theological interpretation (experience of suffering as the image of the death and resurrection of Jesus). This is what the Apostle sees as the dark side of his use, participation in the fate of Jesus. The aim is that the community also took part in the glorified life of Jesus. The grace that God wants to give to both Paul and the Corinthian community is that they work towards the fulfilment and improvement of their current lives.
„Zróbmy zasadzkę na sprawiedliwego” (Iz 3,10 [LXX], Mdr 2,12). Księga Mądrości jako dramat klasyczny
Poniży, Bogdan; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The Book of Wisdom is a book which describes God’s Wisdom in an extraordinary way. In the Bible, it belongs to the sapiential books and comes right after such books as: the Book of Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs (Canticle of Canticles), and before the Book of Sirach (Ecclesiasticus). Chronologically the last book of the Old Testament, it was written in Greek with the use of not only Hebrew, but also Greek rhetoric. Apart from the main theme of the Book, which is the Wisdom, there is another topic, the relevant one today – namely the persecution of the righteous man. The author of the Book repeats Isaiah’s words (…..) (3:10 [LXX]) and in a camouflaged way presents the first pogrom in history of Jews in Alexandria ( AD 38) under the rule of Gaius Caligula. This is the historical background of the Book according to the contemporary exegetes. The exact description of the events is presented by Filon of Alexandria in his work Flakkus which was translated into Polish in 2012 and has become an ideal basis for the text of the Book of Wisdom. The author of the present article refers to the concept of German exegete Armin Schmitt (†2006) who discovered some elements of the classical drama in the first part of Wisdom. The concept has been extended here to the whole Book. The author has divided the text in such a way as to adjust it to the stage adaptation. The proposed staging makes the Book livelier, giving it some colour, sound and atmosphere. The Greek book of Wisdom has gained a new dimension, it appeals to us in a way different from the Hebrew books which were supposed to be received aurally, mainly because it contains the power of image. These constantly changing, lively images add a great dynamic to it, strengthening its power of reception and argumentation. Moreover, if we set the Book of Wisdom in the context of the events in Alexandria, it becomes a “cry of heart”. Thus, the author of the article invites us to “stage” the Book (at least by imagining it) as a classical drama depicting the real persecution of the righteous people in Alexandria in AD 38, which took place almost simultaneously with Christ’s Passion and death.
Mojżesz, Gilgamesz i rozwój pisarskich kompozycji
Jasnos, Renata; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Books of the Hebrew Bible were shaped in accordance with the customs of the ancient Near Eastern art of writing. This process differs from the assumptions of the Redaction Criticism and certainly does not have an analogy with contemporary writing processes. The composition, which is the Pentateuch of Moses, was formed, to some extent, similarly to Sumerian-Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh. This is evidenced by the characteristics of the composition, which was created in the way of specific writing activities.
Obraz Jezusa Chrystusa w hymnach pasyjnych Pierwszego Listu św. Piotra
Jaromin, Joanna; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The Passion hymns presented in St. Peter’s First Letter (1:18- 21; 2:21-25; 3:18-22) focus on the passion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The first hymn primarily emphasizes the saving value of the suffering of Jesus and the truth of His resurrection. It presents Jesus as an innocent paschal lamb. It also indicates the pre-existence and worship of God. The second hymn emphasizes the attitude of Jesus according to the model of Isaiah’s suffering servant, Yahweh. The author shows first the sufferings of Jesus as an example for Christians suffering innocently and then underlines their sense of salvation. The third hymn stresses once again the fruits of passion and death of Jesus and His resurrection and emphasizes His pre-existence one more time. The Passion hymns show on the one hand the theology of the Passion of Christ, and on the other hand they also emphasize the importance of the resurrection and exaltation of Christ.
Katechetyczna interpretacja i aktualizacja orędzia nadziei
Kochel, Jan; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The article is an attempt at interpretive catechesis and revision of the address of hope included in the Apocalypse of St. John. The starting point is the blessing addressed to the lector (teacher) being the reader and guardian of the teachings and the listener (disciple). The catechesis of hope is reflected in the catechesis about happiness, the penance catechesis and evangelization catechesis, which is supposed to be new, not in terms of its content but in terms of fervour and means of expression. The address of hope, included in the last book of the Bible, evokes the image of an angel announcing to the world “the eternal Gospel” (14:6). The flying angel is the synonym of engagement in preaching the Gospel addressed to the people of all nations, generations, tongues and tribes and spread all over the Earth “so that all nations will hear it” (Mt 24:14-15). The eternal and essential nature of the address concentrates on Christ himself, who – as St. John Paul II taught us – “is to be known, loved and imitated, so that in him we may live the life of the Trinity, and with him transform history until its fulfilment in the heavenly Jerusalem” (NMI 29; cf. Ap 21:9-27). This invariable programme included in the Bible is the ultimate purpose and mission of catechesis, which should “put people (disciples) not only in touch but in communion (in intimacy) with Jesus Christ: “Only He can lead us to the love of the Father in the Spirit and make us share in the life of the Holy Trinity” (CT 5).
Polaryzacja postaw współwyznawców wobec uwięzionego Pawła na podstawie 2Tm 1,15-18
Wilk, Janusz; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
This article takes up the issue of two postures which the co-believers had adopted towards the imprisonment of Paul, the apostle. The negative one, consisting of distancing oneself from him, is represented by ‘all those, who are in Asia, and among them is Figelos and Hermogenes’ (see v. 15). The positive one was full of care for Paul, realized by Onesiphorus (see v. 16-18). The apostle of nations, by describing these two various postures, encouraged young Timothy towards perseverance and faithfulness, both in care for the deposit of faith in Ephesians Church (see 2Tim 1:13-14) and by accompanying his ‘father in faith’ (see 1Tim 1:2; 2Tim 1:2) in the last stage of his earthly life (see 2Tim 4:9.21).
Teologiczne znaczenie terminu „niebiosa” jako zastępczego określenia Boga w tradycji biblijnej oraz w literaturze rabinicznej
Parchem, Marek; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
In the Hellenistic-Roman period the term “heaven” is used in the theological meaning and becomes the substitute designation of God. Incorporating this kind of practice seems to have originated from the application of the composite title “God / Lord / King of heaven”, to God in the Persian times and later, which is testified by the biblical texts (Ezra, Nehemiah, Daniel, Tobit, Judith) and the Elephantine papyri, as well as the fact that Persians and Greeks referred to their deities in this very way. The only fragment of the Hebrew Bible in which the term “heaven” appears as a substitute designation of God is Dan 4:23. With an unusual emphasis, the text accentuates the belief in an absolute and universal authority of God that surpasses everything, especially the rule of earthly kings. Later testimonies from 1-2 Maccabees, “Story of Susanna” (Dan 13) and the New Testament (Mark, Matthew, Luke, John), as well as the rabbinic literature (Mishnah, Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmud, the earliest Midrashim, Targums), demonstrate that the usage of the term “heaven” as the substitute designation of God seems to have resulted from a more general tendency of the late Judaism to refer to God by means of various synonyms, and had likely nothing to do with avoiding pronouncing the name of God due to the respect and reverence for His holiness in conformity with one of the Ten Commandments (Ex 20:7; Deut 5:11).
Zasadność relektury liturgicznej Pieśni nad pieśniami
Langkammer, Hugolin; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The exegesis today attempts to discern only the literal meaning of the Song of Songs. However, even Jewish interpretations hint at traces of religious lines of thought which then formed the basis for the use of the Song of Songs in synagogal liturgy. That line of thought is also seen later in the acts of early Christian piety. In the article, the writer investigates where and when they can be found. Furthermore, he provides a sound substantiation for his theses.
Bóg i człowiek w obliczu cierpienia – perspektywa Księgi Hioba
Pikor, Wojciech; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The subject of Job’s discussion with his friends is the issue of suffering and its impression in a human’s life. The matter leads to the question of God’s attitude towards suffering and evil in the world. The article lists answers on the matter of suffering and its meaning in the Book of Job to show that these answers remain secondary in the face of the necessity of being receptive to God’s mystery, his freedom and reign in the world. Job is liberated, not so much by suffering as by seeing God from the angle of his own experiences.
Uzdrowienie trędowatego (Mk 1,40-45). Symbolika gestu Jezusa
Posadzy, Andrzej; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Mark recounts this story of Jesus healing a leper in order to provide an additional example of who Jesus is and the greatness of his power. In Judaism, healing a leper was viewed as being on a different level than other kinds of healing. It was an eschatological healing on the same level as raising the dead, and as a result, paralleled the arrival of the kingdom of God. That Mark assumed that his gentile readers would have announcement of the kingdom’s arrival in 1:15 is quite likely. What is clear is that in recounting this story, Mark once again portrays Jesus as a worker of miracles who does what others cannot do and who thus generates a tremendous response of awe and wonder throughout all of Galilee. Even despite commands of silence, the greatness of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, cannot be hidden. The leper simply cannot help but preach the word concerning Jesus.
Liturgiczna formuła konsekracji wina na tle Starego Testamentu
Ordon, Hubert; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The author explains the words of the consecration formula that are said today over the chalice of wine, and reveals their true meaning and significance. In order to achieve this, he offers the reader an insight into a variety of texts from the Old Testament. These include: the Sinai Covenant, the blood and shedding of blood when offering sacrifice, the announcement of the New Covenant (Jr 31) and the character and mission of the Servant of the Lord (Is 53-54). The texts themselves and their impact make it possible for the reader to fully and correctly understand the words said by Jesus Christ during the Last Supper.
Mądrość jako źródło radości w Księdze Mądrości 7,7-12
Zieliński, Marcin; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The present article discusses the concept of joy in Wis 7:7-12. The structure of Wis 7:7-12 and the link with 8:10-16 shows us that the concept of joy is intentionally developed by the author. The figure of Wisdom is presented as more precious than material and spiritual richness because she is the origin of any good thing. She not only provides every kind of good, but helps us to use it in the correct way (7:12a). As a source and a guide of every good thing, she is considered by Solomon as the most desirable company. In order to obtain wisdom, it is necessary to appeal to God and ask for this gift. The parallel text of Wis 8:10-16 starts from discovering that it is possible to create an intimate relationship with Wisdom which is connected with the experience of true joy and happiness. Due to God’s activity, wisdom is transformed from a distant and abstract entity to an intimate friend, even a perfect life companion.
Słowo Boże kształtujące wspólnotę wierzących. Sięgając do bogactwa treści adhortacji Verbum Domini
Jezierska, Ewa; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
The text highlights the role of the Word of God (in both the Old and the New Testaments) in shaping up the community of the faithful. This study is based upon the reflections of Pope Benedict XVI presented in his Apostolic Exhortation, Verbum Domini. Similar reflections appear in the teachings of the Holy Father Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii gaudium. The influence of the Word of God upon shaping up the community of the faithful is no less significant in the Church today.
Język aramejski – lingua franca starożytnego Bliskiego Wschodu
Szmajdziński, Mariusz; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Aramaic is the ancient language of the Semitic family group. From ninth century BC and onward, it and its script had become the international language of diplomacy and commerce. Aramaic is dated into five periods: (1) 925-700 – Old Aramaic, (2) 700-200 – Official/Imperial Aramaic, (3) 200 BC–200 AD – Middle Aramaic, (4) 200-1200 – Late Aramaic, (5) 1200–to our time – Modern Aramaic. It was used in both the Old Testament (Gen 31:47; Jer 10:11; Ezra 4:8-6:18; 7:12-26; Dn 2:4-7:28) and the New Testament (e.g. Mk 5:41; 15:34; 1Kor 16:22). Aramaic also has supplied important non-biblical texts of various kinds throughout the whole biblical period. It was a spoken language in the time of Jesus Christ as well.
Gloriam praecedit humilitas. Biografia Księdza Profesora Antoniego Troniny
Szmajdziński, Mariusz; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Troska o przybyszów i bezdomnych w Biblii
Dąbek, Tomasz Maria; Szmajdziński, Mariusz (Częstochowskie Wydawnictwo Archidiecezjalne „Regina Poloniae”, 2015)
Quoted biblical texts of the Old and New Testaments show homelessness as a consequence of the free choice to leave for God no current place in one’s life situation and the loss of security related with that. Moreover, homelessness is presented as a punishment for sins, as a consequence of misdeeds or as a result of circumstances that are not in the control of the person experiencing it. The texts call us to help the needy, including the homeless. They reminded Israelites of their stay in the foreign country, Egypt. The New Testament teaches us that we are all pilgrims in the way to heaven. During the Last Judgment, sensitivity to the poor will be an important criterion. The Supreme Judge will identify himself with the poor. The man in a difficult situation (homeless) may realize that life on earth is not the end. Eternity depends on our present deeds. One can atone for mistakes by accepting the difficulties of one’s current life. They may be the result of previous bad choices. If one accepts them in peace, he may become a participant in the suffering of Christ and prepare to share his eternal joy.
