Rezumând atitudinea terapeuților față de bunăstare, putem constata că această comunitate a ridicat la un nivel atât de înalt valorile spirituale, încât a ignorat absolut tot ce aparține vieții zilnice obișnuite. Ei s-au străduit la înmulțirea bo-găției înțelepciunii (par. 16–17, 20) și a valorilor spirituale. În rândul acestei co-munități meditațiile asupra Sfintelor Scripturi, a cărților sfinte proprii, precum și asupra înțelepciunii dumnezeiești (par. 1, 28–30, 67) sunt absolut primordiale, din care rezultă retragerea din lume și disprețuirea totală a bogăției pământești.

In this dissertation I would like to present an extract from Philipp Melanchthon's work Catechesis puerilis. I translated part of the work from Latin into Hungarian. The work, Catechesis puerilis, is quite distinct from Martin Luther's well-known Small Catechism. However, their objective is the same: to teach the knowledge of the Christian faith. Philipp Melanchthon begins the catechesis with a grammar lesson for school-age children. I have divided my dissertation into five major units. The first part is about the life of Philipp Melanchthon. I will briefly talk about his childhood, his school years, and then about his personality, his family and his family life. I am interested in what Melanchthon was like as a child, who were the people who helped him, who took him in, so to speak. In the second part I talk about Melanchthon as a teacher. I was curious to know what Melanchthon was like as a teacher.

Allegorikus bibliamagyarázata keretében Alexandriai Philón néhány alkalommal az Isten emberét állítja az olvasó elé. Az ἄνθρωπος [τοῦ] θεοῦ megnevezés megtalálható a Septuaginta jó néhány szövegében, többnyire próféták, illetve olyan jeles bibliai alakok jelölésére, mint Mózes vagy Dávid. Philón azonban kevés alkalommal támaszkodik ezekre a szakaszokra, minden bizonnyal azért, mert a Pentateuchost magyarázza, miközben az „Isten embere” cím főleg a deuteronomisztikus és a krónikás történeti műben fordul elő. Ugyanakkor néha érintőlegesen utalást tesz ezekre a szövegekre is. Azonban az allegorikus-etikai magyarázat keretében és a platóni–sztoikus filozófiai eszmék hatására Philónnál a fogalom új jelentésekkel bővül. A következőkben röviden áttekintem az „Isten embere” fogalom használatát a Septuagintában. Ezt követően rátérek néhány philóni szövegre, ahol az ἄνθρωπος θεοῦ fogalom szerepel, és megvizsgálom annak jelentéseit.

Melanchton is usually considered as both a Humanist and a Reformer. Many of the books and studies written about him present him as a theologian. It is also worthwhile studying the Humanist intellectual components of his personality, since, after all, a great proportion of his works are ones which present him as a deep thinking, through intellectual, writing with sublime eloquence.

Psalm-singing in the Community of Therapeutae Based on De vita contemplativa by Philo of Alexandria. The Therapeutae’s ascetic devotion is characterized not only by searching the scriptures, meditation and prayer but also by singing of hymns and psalms. Hymns were composed by the principals of the community, they were those who taught the community members to sing them and they continually enriched the hymnal with new ones. The Essenes’ and Therapeutae’s psalm-singing indicates first of all the common Old Testament origin. However these religious communities had different self-identity from that of the normative Jews and this identity required for a special psalm-poetry to be accomplished. The Therapeutae’s psalms remind us of the church psalm-tradition characterized, just like the Essene hymns, by responsive singing and refrains.
