Penance belongs to these sacramental events, in which the difference of views between the Eastern and Western Churches was intensified for many different reasons. It was not, however, the problem of setting different goals, but of using different means or methods in order to attain them. In the present article the issues are presented from the perspective of the Eastern Church, in the light of the teaching and directives given by its most representative (in the author’s opinion) members and of the decisions of synods that took place in the Christian East at that time.
