In this short paper I would like to provide a comparative analysis of the passages concerning the passion of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Early Christian confessions (among them the Apostolic Creed1 as well), because these passages are frequently the source of theological misunderstanding and debates. The main question which urged me to do this research had occurred in relation with the Apostolic Creed. How do we say correctly: ‘I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended into hell…’ or ‘I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered, under Pontius Pilate He was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended into hell…’? I shall try to answer this question by analysing the relevant passages of the creeds which were composed in the first six centuries.

Die Rezeption der neuen ungarischen Bibelübersetzung in Siebenbürgen. Diese Studie wurde als Vortrag in Budapest am 8. November 2005 gehalten im Rahmen einer feierlichen Konferenz des Ungarischen Bibelvereins mit Thema: Die 30 jährige neue ungarische Bibelüberzetzung und die 15 jährige revidierte neue Überzetzung. Der erste Teil der Studie führt uns in die Problematik der Rezeption der übersetzten Bibeltexte allgemein ein, und der zweite Teil stellt die Rezeption der neuen ungarischen Bibelüberzetzung in Siebenbürgen, auch auf dem Grund einer Meinungsbefragung zwischen Pfarrern dar.
