Prorok Eliasz w odniesieniu do Chrystusa i Mojżesza w przekazie katechezy biblijnej

Abstract

The paper focuses on the theme of Israel's prophetism in school catechesis. It concerns with the person of the prophet Elijah. The Transfiguration scene, described in synoptic Gospels (Mt 17,1-8; Mk 9, 2-8; Lk 9, 28-36), is particularly concerned with regard to Christ. There are also recalled other places in New Testament, where Elijah is mentioned. The relation between Moses and Elijah is presented mainly in the light of tradition from 1-2 Kings, and also other texts, especially Deut 18, 18 and Mai 3, 22-24. The attention has been put to the usefulness of applying biblical analogies in school catechesis. It learns a pupil to treat Bible as a whole and to interpret one biblical text by another, which helps in better understanding of the salvation message.
