Уявлення про "зраду" у трактаті Іннокентія Гізеля "Мир з Богом чоловіку"

Abstract

The author focuses on views of I. Gizel about «treason» in the context of traditions of Christian divinity. It is mentioned that every sin was treated by Gizel under this concept because ability to the sin was violation of loyalty to God and his commandments. However, the author believes that in more narrow definition of concept «treason» Gizel pushed off from realities of daily occurrence, in particular, from judicial practice of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Legal approach, selected by him for the analysis of sin as a crime accomplished against God, justice, absolute law, and common blessing, resulted in that «treason» is exposed not so much through the prism of moral estimation of act, as from the point of view of a danger which it can represent for political stability or consent in given community. Righorism traditional for Orthodox ethics in relation to estimation of human acts is transferable on an attempt to co-ordinate strict moral principles of the Church with the terms of the real earthly life of laymen.
