ORTODOSSIA, I NODI IRRISOLTI

 di Luigi Sandri

 04 luglio 2017

Ad un anno dal Concilio le tensioni fra i vari patriarcati continuano ad accentuarsi. Molto per questioni politiche

A un anno dal “Santo e Grande Concilio” che si sperava “panortodosso” ma che tale non fu, le relazioni tra le Chiese continuano ad essere turbate: del tutto irrisolto rimane il loro intrico in Ucraina, paese ove sempre più spinoso è il rapporto tra la Chiesa che si ricollega al patriarcato di Mosca e le due “autocefale” che guardano a Costantinopoli; e permane lo stato di scisma tra il patriarcato di Antiochia e quello di Gerusalemme.

CHIETI AND CRETE: TWO HISTORICAL EVENTS

Rev. Fr. Thomas FitzGerald, Professor of Church History and Historical Theology at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, was invited to speak at the Orientale Lumen XXI Conference held at the Washington Retreat House in Washington, DC, June 19-23, 2017. The theme of the symposium was “Chieti and Crete: Two Historical Events.”

Η ΑΓΙΑ ΚΑΙ ΜΕΓΑΛΗ ΣΥΝΟΔΟΣ ΤΗΣ ΚΡΗΤΗΣ: ΝΕΑ ΕΚΚΛΗΣΙΟΛΟΓΙΑ Ή ΠΙΣΤΟΤΗΤΑ ΣΤΗΝ ΠΑΡΑΔΟΣΗ;

Ἐπισκόπου Ἀβύδου Κυρίλλου (Κατερέλου)

Ἡ Ἁγία καὶ Μεγάλη Σύνοδος τῆς Κρήτης:

Νέα Εκκλησιολογία ἢ Πιστότητα στὴν Παράδοση;

1. Εἰσαγωγικὲς θεωρήσεις

Στὰ Πρακτικὰ τῆς Ε´ Οἰκουμενικῆς Συνόδου παρατίθενται τὰ ἑξῆς:

«Δὲν πρέπει, οὔτε νὰ τοποθετῆται ἡ ἐλπὶς τῆς Ἐκκλησίας εἰς τοὺς ἀνθρώπους, ὅταν εἶναι καλοί, οὔτε ὅταν εἶναι κακοὶ νὰ συμπεραίνουμε ὅτι ἡ Ἐκκλησία χάθηκε.

Παρὰ ταῦτα ἐμεῖς δεχόμαστε καὶ τὴ δική τους κατηγορία, ἀφοῦ εἶναι ἀδελφοί μας. Καὶ ἐὰν μπορέσουν νὰ μᾶς ἀποδείξουν ὅτι εἶναι ἔνοχοι (αὐτοί, τοὺς ὁποίους κατηγοροῦν), ἐμεῖς θὰ τοὺς ἀναθεματίσουμε τὴν ἴδια ἡμέρα. Τὴν Ἐκκλησία ὅμως, τὴν ὁποία ὁ Θεὸς μᾶς ὑπεσχέθη καὶ μᾶς ἐδώρησε, οὔτε τήν «πουλᾶμε», οὔτε τὴν ἐγκαταλείπουμε».

Τὰ παραπάνω βαρυσήμαντα λόγια ἀποδίδονται στὸν Ἱερὸ Αὐγουστῖνο στὰ πρακτικὰ τῆς Συνόδου τῆς Καρθαγένης  ποὺ συνῆλθε τὸ 411 μ.Χ. Δὲν εἶναι ἀσφαλῶς τυχαῖο ὅτι τὸ παραπάνω ἀπόσπασμα διαβάστηκε στὴν Ε´ Πράξη τῆς Οἰκουμενικῆς Συνόδου  στὸ γενικώτερο προβληματισμό της, ἐὰν εἶναι δυνατὸς ὁ ἀφορισμὸς καὶ κεκοιμημένων αἱρετικῶν.

SHINING FACE AS HIDDEN AND REVEALED CHRISTOLOGY

NICHIFOR TĂNASE

Abstract: The "shining face" theology as luminous metamorphosis of a visionary has experienced three great challenges: the anthropomorphic controversy, iconoclastic debate and the hesychast dispute.

THE SOUL’S POWERS AND THE PROCESS OF KNOWLEDGE IN THE WRITINGS OF SIMON TAIBUTEH: BETWEEN ANATOMY AND SPIRITUALITY

 BENEDICT (VALENTIN) VESA.

Abstract: In the line of the ascetical tradition, the knowledge of God is the very aim of spiritual life. Divine knowledge is possible, on the one hand, because of God’s revelation and, on the other hand, due to human’s anatomical and spiritual structure.

DEBATING THE DOCUMENTS OF THE HOLY AND GREAT SYNOD OF CRETE – A CANONICAL AND DISCIPLINARY APPROACH. CASE STUDY: THE ARCHBISHOPRIC OF IAŞI

EMILIAN-IUSTINIAN ROMAN

Abstract: 

The discussion of the documents of the Holy and Great Synod of Crete has resulted in numerous clashes in the dioceses of the Romanian Patriarchate.

A CANONICAL ANALYSIS OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL PHRASE OF THE HOLY AND GREAT COUNCIL: THE ORTHODOX CHURCH ACCEPTS THE HISTORICAL NAME OF OTHER NON-ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CHURCHES AND CONFESSIONS THAT ARE NOT IN COMMUNION WITH HER.

RĂZVAN PERȘA.

Abstract: In this paper I will try to emphasise the genesis and the development of the phrase: "the Orthodox Church accepts the historical name of other non-Orthodox Christian Churches and Confessions", by finding how this highly controversial formulation emerged and who were its promoters. Surprisingly, the direct promoter of this formulation of the final document of the Third Pre-conciliar Pan-orthodox Conference is none other than Theodoros Zisis, at that time a consultant member of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.

AUTONOMY AND ORTHODOX DIASPORA FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE DOCUMENTS ADOPTED BY THE HOLY AND GREAT COUNCIL.

PATRICIU DORIN VLAICU

Abstract: Since the beginning of the debates on the topics which could be discussed at the Orthodox Church’s Synod, autocephaly, autonomy, the Orthodox diaspora and the diptychs were part of the proposed themes.

THE IMPORTANCE OF FASTING AND ITS OBSERVANCE FOR TOMORROW

RASTKO JOVIC

Abstract: This article theologically examines the document on fasting adopted at the Crete Council in 2016. With respect to fasting, as an obligatory practice, we could notice negative consequences in Church life, more than positive ones.

Η ΡΟΥΜΑΝΙΚΗ ΣΚΗΤΗ ΤΟΥ ΑΓΙΟΥ ΟΡΟΥΣ ΜΝΗΜΟΝΕΥΕΙ ΚΑΝΟΝΙΚΑ ΤΟΝ ΟΙΚΟΥΜΕΝΙΚΟ ΠΑΤΡΙΑΡΧΗ

Η Ρουμάνικη Σκήτη του Αγίου Όρους, με ανακοίνωσή της που δημοσιεύεται στην επίσημη ιστοσελίδα του Πατριαρχείου Ρουμανίας, δηλώνει ρητά και κατηγορηματικά ότι κατά τις Θείες Λειτουργίες και τις ιερές Ακολουθίες που τελούνται στην Σκήτη, μνημονεύεται κανονικά το όνομα του κυριάρχου Επισκόπου του Αγίου Όρους, δηλ. του Οικουμενικού Πατριάρχου Βαρθολομαίου.
