A tresury in The New Testament
Rampich-Hamariová, Juliana ; Mrázek, Jiří (advisor) ; Dus, Jan (referee)
The thesis summarizes conclusions of exegetical studies of all fourteen texts containing a word "treasury" (thesauros) according to concordance of the Greek New Testament, and furthermore in three instances substitutes for treasury, using lingual and textual analysis and accessible Czech and foreign language commentaries. As far as other terms are concerned, a term "talent/mina" is used in the Gospel of Mathew and Luke in The parable of the talent/minas, where "talent/mina" fulfills all internal and external attributes for "treasury". In the Gospel of John, where we find no term "treasury", there is chosen "ointment" in the story of Anointing in Bethany for its symbolic meaning and relation to the Easter, where John's version is compared with description of the story in the synoptic gospels. Classifying of concluding interpretational frames of all seventeen texts, we get several fundamental models characterizing the role of "treasury" in the New Testament from the point of view of substance, allegory, symbolism or connotation. The treasury is the image of something precious, strange to the world, something we have a very small experience with, because we usually have not opportunity to be confronted with it. Therefore we need to be led by the values, we have accepted by feeling of Holy Spirit as ours. The...

The Kingdom of God and its theological connotations with focus on Jesus' teaching
Dosoudil, Jiří ; Ryšková, Mireia (advisor) ; Větrovec, Pavel (referee)
The thesis analyzes the "Kingdom of God" concept and integrates it into context of the Old and New Testaments, especially into Jesus' public teaching and ministry. Prior to theological analysis in the first chapter, sources are examined by textual criticism method: introduces traditions of particular scriptural and apocrypha sources, their authorship, cultural and linguistic implications and presents observations about their historicity. The second chapter analyzes the presence of topic in the Synoptic Gospels. It evaluates their specifics, the overall conception and usage of the term. In the third chapter, the "Kingdom of God" concept is incorporated in whole of the Jesus' teaching. The second part of the third chapter analyses the Sermon on the Mount, the Lord's prayer, and some of the Jesus' parables. The final fourth chapter presents some basic interpretative planes of the "Kingdom of God" concept in the history of Christian thought.
