Two of them play a special role: the Body of Christ and the People of God. How did it happen that the theologians of the Council had assigned this special role to these metaphors while defi ning the Church? Did the theological movements of the previous centuries, especially in Germany, play a leading role in this choice? The answer to the above-mentioned questions is the topic of the present study.deCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychChurchBody of Christpeople of GodGod’s peopleSecond Vatican CouncilVatican IIDogmatic Constitution on the ChurchChurch documentsconciliar constitutionsconstitutions of Vatican IIdogmatic constitutionsmetaphorbiblical metaphorsBibleecclesiologytheologyKircheLeib ChristiVolk GottesZweite Vatikanische Konzildogmatische Konstitution über die KircheKościółCiało Chrystusalud Bożysobór watykański IIKonstytucja dogmatyczna o KościeleLumen Gentiumdokumenty Kościołakonstytucje soborowekonstytucje soboru watykańskiego IIkonstytucje dogmatycznemetaforametafory biblijneBibliaPismo ŚwięteeklezjologiateologiaDie biblischen Bildsymbole der Kirche „Leib Christi“ und „Volk Gottes“ in der Ekklesiologie des 19. und 20.
