„GRZECH BAŁWOCHWALSTWA JEST NIE W CZYNIENIU BAŁWANÓW ALBO OBRAZÓW” – PRZEKŁAD BIBLII JAKUBA WUJKA WOBEC PROBLEMU PRZEDSTAWIEŃ KULTOWYCH

The paper analyzes the teachings on idolatry and authorized cult images contained in exegetic comments in Jakub Wujek’s translation of the Bible. The starting point here is the controversial thesis presented in the title of the paper. This topic is discussed in the perspective of a dual dispute: that between the Catholic Church and the Reformed groups and that between Jakub Wujek and Stanisław Grodzicki. The text also discusses the intervention of Jesuit censors into the original translation and the dependence of the concepts present in the 1599 Bible on Disputationes de controversiis Christianae Fidei by Robert Bellarmin.
