Abstrakt
Professor Jozef Kudasiewicz devoted his whole life as a priest and biblical scholar to making the Holy Scriptures truly the foundation of faith and the source of the Christian life (cf. CO 21, 24). He set out with great commitment to the theological vision of the Bible that the Second Vatican Council put before the Church in the Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation Dei Verbum. Kudasiewicz insisted on the necessity of applying the literary and theological principles of bibli-cal hermeneutics and pointed to the saving history of God who invites mankind to communion with himself. In his publications, he emphasised those ways of proclaiming the Word of God that could lead to a personal encounter with the Lord. Jozef Kudasiewicz’s service of the word of God in the field of research and formation can be described as the promotion of biblical catechesis. His lectures, seminars, courses and symposia all show him as a biblical scholar who has pro-found faith in God, who listens to His word and who wants everyone in the Church to discover this treasure. It seems that all the years of Kudasiewicz’s dedicated service to the word of God share a common feature: a thorough search for the Truth and the introduction of others to that knowledge, firing them with love for the God who reveals himself to the world in his Word. Ku-dasiewicz’s enthusiastic reception of John Paul II’s way of proclaiming the word of God indicates many similarities between these two Promoters of the teaching of the Second Vatican Council concerning the role of the word of God in the Church. The most important are undoubtedly the desire to open the Bible to all people and the desire to help everyone to be open to God. This study on Father Jozef Kudasiewicz as a promoter of biblical catechesis indicates further fields of research on his work and activity. One of these is the need to analyse what new light Kudasiewicz brings to contemporary catechesis
