Froniewski, Jacek2025-07-212025-07-212013Teologia w Polsce, 2013, Tom 7, nr 1, s. 25-41.1732-45722956-6355https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/33896It is commonly held that essential consensus can be found in the sacramental pastoral of the Roman Catholic Church and of the Orthodox Church. This cannot, however, be said of the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick, where there are significant differences. In this article the author first outlines the historical development of the liturgy of the Anointing of the Sick in the byzantine rite. For this reason he delineates then the theology of this sacrament according to the orthodox mind. In conclusion he expounds three significant differences between the orthodox liturgy of Anointing of the Sick and the catholic praxis. Firstly, the Anointing of the Sick in the orthodox liturgy is generally done in concelebration with seven priests. Secondly, the oil of the sick would be blessed by the priest directly during the anointing and not by the bishop, like in the Catholic Church during the liturgy of Maundy Thursday. Finally, the orthodoxy emphasizes so strongly the forgiveness of sins as an effect of the Anointing of the Sick that the latter sometimes becomes in the praxis a substitute for the sacrament of reconciliation.plCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwasakrament namaszczenia chorychsakramentynamaszczenie chorychliturgiapraktyka liturgicznateologiaprawosławiekatolicyzmtradycja bizantyjskateologia prawosławnateologia katolickateologia prawosławna tradycji bizantyjskiejKościoły prawosławne tradycji bizantyjskiejpraktyka liturgiczna Kościołów prawosławnych tradycji bizantyjskiejteologia Kościołów prawosławnych tradycji bizantyjskiejpraktyka sakramentalna w Kościele katolickimpraktyka sakramentalna w Kościele prawosławnymliturgia rytu bizantyjskiegosakrament namaszczenia chorych w liturgii rytu bizantyjskiegoprawosławna teologia sakramentu namaszczenia chorychteologia sakramentu namaszczenia chorychsakramentologiakatolicka teologia sakramentu namaszczenia chorychKościoły wschodniesacrament of anointing of the sicksacramentsanointing of the sickliturgyliturgical practicetheologyEastern OrthodoxyCatholicismByzantine traditionOrthodox theologyCatholic theologyOrthodox theology of the Byzantine traditionOrthodox Churches of the Byzantine traditionliturgical practice of Orthodox Churches of the Byzantine traditiontheology of the Orthodox Churches of the Byzantine traditionsacramental practice in the Catholic Churchsacramental practice in the Orthodox ChurchByzantine rite liturgysacrament of anointing of the Sick in Byzantine rite liturgyOrthodox theology of sacrament of the anointing of the sicktheology of sacrament of the anointing of the sicksacramentologyCatholic theology of sacrament of the anointing of the sickEastern ChurchesSakrament namaszczenia chorych w praktyce liturgicznej i teologii Kościołów prawosławnych tradycji bizantyjskiejThe Sacrament of Anointing the Sick in the Liturgical Praxis and in the Theology of the Orthodox Churches in the Byzantine TraditionArticle
