Kozler, Karel ; Brož, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
Jesus' teachings on marriage as a return to the "origin". This bachelor thesis deals with the meaning, importance and necessity of a marriage as an institution not only in the ancient history but also in the present times. Today's modern society is influenced by its widely- tolerated attributes, those are as followed - the deflection from a marriage as an institution, a cohabitation of the unmarried couples, a depreciation of the concept of marriage, the full perception of the importance of body, the society's attitude towards the contraception and miscarriage itself, the periodic incontinence and last but not at least the loss of a gift of reciprocity. But there are many people who understand marriage as a prime holiness, responsible parenthood and honor its high ethical and moral values. They also honor the love which relates to the purity expressed as a continence that protects the dignity. As well as they give evidence of a positive change, a deepened intimacy, love and a rediscovery of sexual self-control. This thesis is not only about a list of changing meaning and importance of marriage during the periods of time, but it primarily reflects the understanding of a marriage in the past as well as in the present and the needs of society in terms of culture and ethics of mutual partnership...

Problems of the Lechery and Adultery in the Pentateuch
BOROVKOVÁ, Blanka
The work deals with exegetic-ethical analysis of sexual motives in the Pentateuch. It aims to analyse as well as to systematize the issue of human sexuality in the Five Books of Moses, and to create a compact illustration of the problem. The major part of the work includes an analysis of sexual motives in significant legal regulations - the Ten Commandments, the Covenant Code, the Holiness Code and the Deuteronomic Code. However, the other parts of the Pentateuch must not be left out of consideration and are covered in a separate chapter. The final part tries to synthesize the obtained findings and evaluate systematically the basic sexual questions appearing in the Five Books of Moses.
