    Topicality of the Second Vatican Council Constitution Dei Verbum in Contemporary Biblical Studies
    Zbroja, Bogdan (Polskie Towarzystwo Teologiczne, 2013)
    The article discusses the issue of how strongly contemporary ecclesiological and scholarly approach to the Sacred Scripture is rooted in the Second Vatican Council Constitution Dei Verbum. The Bible originates from the faith of the Church, and, together with Tradition, helps to build this faith. The text consists of three sections. The first one focuses on God, who reveals Himself and His plan of salvation to man. Then, the ways in which God communicates with man through human authors and the long process of writing the inspired sacred books are mentioned. The last part emphasises how important it is for man to respond to the Word of God, which will enable the salvific dialogue of man with his Father, through His Son in the Holy Spirit. The community of Church faith is a natural environment of research, devotional reading and encounters with the Word of God, which are the elements of Christian life that the Constitution Dei Verbum (no. 25) encourages to implement.

    Liturgy and Morality. Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy Sacrosanctum Concilium in the Context of Moral Theology
    Mielec, Bogusław (Polskie Towarzystwo Teologiczne, 2013)
    The fiftieth anniversary of the promulgation of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of Vaticanum II encourages attempts of its interpretation in the context of moral theology. It leads to the conclusion that there is a co-relation between liturgy and morality in the history of salvation. The Revelation of the Old Testament reveals the conjunction between worship and morality. Attempts to separate the two in the history of the Chosen People raise objections of prophets. Their criticism, however, comes together with the announcement of the future in which God will reveal the divisions between worship and morality. The New Testament shows the fulfilment of this promise in Jesus Christ. His salvific work establishes the Christian liturgy, in which man participates as a physical, as well as a spiritual being. The salvation, made present in the liturgy of the Church, is a relation, the co-operation of God and man, grace and freedom. Sacrosantum Concilium presents this revealed truth, emphasising the objective and subjective dimensions of liturgy as the work of Christ, in which a Christian participates actively, freely and consciously (participatio actuosa). The participation is mostly spiritual, therefore moral at the same time. Only than can the external elements of liturgy take place, including its detailed forms, gestures, attitudes and behaviours of the sacred liturgy participants. It means that the liturgical participatio actuosa requires moral works through imitation of Christ leading to conversion. That is when “faith works through love” (cf. Gal 5:6). It leads us to the notion of sacrifice, which, as far as man is concerned, requires a total change. Sinful man presented with the love of the Triune God may respond to it with his own, gradually maturing love. The process constitutes the drama of God and man, which is the tension between grace and freedom, which is then represented by the co-relation between liturgy and morality. What is more, this particular co-relation makes an authentic experience of liturgy possible, protecting it from being reduced to sheer moralism and ritualism.

    Numerus concelebrantium
    Krakowiak, Czesław (Polskie Towarzystwo Teologiczne, 2013)
    The concelebration of Mass restored in the Latin Church by the Constitution on Divine Liturgy (no. 57–58) was initially permitted only in specific situations. One of the requirements was for the Bishop or his Delegate to preside. In the process of concelebration rite preparation the Congregation for Divine Worship attempted to determine the permitted number of concelebrants. However, in Ritus servandus, published in 1965, we can only find information that the number of concelebrants is dependent on the particular circumstances in which concelebration is taking place, such as the size of the presbyterium. Ritus servandus indicates that the concelebrants need to surround the altar, at the same time not obscuring the view for the faithful. Currently, the concelebrated Mass can be presided by any presbyter. This form of Mass celebration has become ordinary practice and is advised when there are many priests and there is no need for individual celebration for the sake of the faithful. In recent years a tendency to limit the number of concelebrants can be noticed.

    Second Vatican Council Fathers and Their Concern about Catholic Biblical Studies
    Bogacz, Roman (Polskie Towarzystwo Teologiczne, 2013)
    The article presents the significant development of theological and biblical thinking since the beginning of the 20th century until the end of the Second Vatican Council. The tension between natural sciences and Biblical Studies, and thenceforth between historical studies and the matter of historical truth in the Bible, became the cause of numerous disputes, and controversies that Catholic theologians could not manage. Additional difficulties were caused by dubious conclusions of the Protestant exegetes, who stated that based on the Gospels there is only one reliable fact about the historical Jesus – the fact that he had existed (R. Bultmann). The very systematic and persistent work of the Council Fathers led to the formulation of the Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation Dei Verbum. This document described the nature of Divine Revelation and acknowledged all scientific research of the Catholic theologians and biblical scholars.

    The Renewal of the Ambrosian and the Hispano-Mozarabic Liturgy after the Second Vatican Council
    Bać, Tomasz (Polskie Towarzystwo Teologiczne, 2013)
    The reform of the Catholic liturgy following the Second Vatican Council was primarily concerned with the Roman Rite, but two other liturgical traditions of the Western Church – the Ambrosian Rite in Milan and the Mozarabic Rite in Toledo – also required renewal. The revision of the Roman liturgical books was followed by a similar revision of the Ambrosian Missal, Lectionary, Liturgy of the Hours and the rituals of some sacraments. The renewed Mozarabic missal and lectionary (Liber Commicus) were published between 1991 and 1995. The reform of the Ambrosian and Mozarabic Rites in the past forty years has shown the liturgy as one of the most important components of the identity of the local Church.
