Christ's prototypes in Isaac and Joseph Egyptian
Yahoda, Tetyana ; Větrovec, Pavel (advisor) ; Hřebík, Josef (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Christ's prototypes in Isaac and Joseph Egyptian" shows through hermeneutical principle of spiritual interpretation of the Scripture how two significant patriarch figures of Israel nation - Isaac and Joseph - herald the New Testament image of human Jesus Christ in particular in the context of his redemption of Easter. After a short reflection of the relation between the Old and New Testament the study passes to the analysis of the particular key texts: oblation of Isaac in Gn 22 and the longer and coherent narration about Joseph in Gn 37; 39 - 45, in context with Gn 37 - 50. As to the firs patriarch Isaac, the sacrifice of the son strikes very deeply his father Abraham, but he obeys the word of God. We can see the same obedience also in the sacrifice of the son of God and in the desire of the Heavenly Father that people have faith based on recognition of the truth of God's love. As regards the second patriarch Joseph, the rejected son becomes a promise and hope for the life of many people from different nations and even a reason for a conversion of brothers. The analogy witha Christian soteriology is obvious and intentional.

The great mothers of Israel
Cveklová, Kateřina ; Větrovec, Pavel (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
The great mothers of Israel There are three great women important for the Christian faith: Sarah, Rebecca and Rachel in the focal point of the work. Based on Bible information, the author tries to learn more about them, to be able to understand them and to draw their vivid pictures. Long lasting infertility was the cross that all three women had in common. To its contrary, there was the promise given by God to their husbands: "I shall multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven and like the sand which is on the seashore"(Gn 22,17). This paradox proved to be of special significance in the God's plan for human salvation. The work follows the difficult ways Sarah, Rebecca and Rachel had to do from their original polytheistic religion to their faith in one God. They were discovering the Lord gradually; it was a whole life lasting process. An important role in it belonged to their husbands. This is the reason, why an attention in the work is also paid to God's original plan of the creation of a man, to the Bible view of a woman, and of the relation between a man and a woman. Chapter dealing with the position of women in the ancient Middle East is meant to put the examined facts into the historical context.

Angels in the Bible. The Role of Angels in biblical texts
Kopřivová, Marie ; Scarano, Angelo (advisor) ; Větrovec, Pavel (referee)
The Diploma thesis Angels in the Bible. The role of angels in biblical texts tries to describe the role of angels in the Bible based on the contexts containing the term angel. Then it analyzes and briefly characterizes individual texts of the Old and New Testament in which the term angel occures. With the help of this analysis it is possible to observe what role did the angels serve: they announced the birth of a son, God's election, God's commands, they become the life savers, leaders and protectors of the Israel nation and executors of God's punishment. An angel - interpreter acts in the apocalyptic texts. In the New Testament, angels also announce the birth of Jesus and John the Baptist, announce the God's will to people, they announce the resurrection and protect the church similarly to Israel. The most angels figure in the Book of Revelation and they play all roles known from apocalyptic literature: angel - interpreter, angel - guardian, as well as angels who participate on the heavenly council and effect the judgement according to the God's commands.
