The present work strives to process, present and interpret the available materials relating to the life and work of the catholic priest, Bible scholar, teacher and dean of the Cyril and Methodius Theological Faculty, Jan Merell. The main aim of the work was to document his life path within the context of historical events, mainly in the period when Jan Merell was confronted with anticlerical persecution policy of the totalitarian regimes of the 20th century both during the occupation of Czechoslovakia by the army of the Nazi Germany and during the establishment and consolidation of the communist regime. Besides, the present work provides an overview of the rich literary and research work of Jan Merell that has made him one of the most prominent Czech biblical scholars and won him international reputation as well. Despite critical opinions questioning some aspects of his public activity, Jan Merell undoubtedly ranks among the most important personalities of Catholic church both in Czech context and abroad.
