Summary: | The author explores defining aspects of the Bible from the perspective of the principles of mythical-religious knowledge and artistic-aesthetic knowledge, as well as in relation to the theory of literary-artistic education. His discourse is structured on the values of the Bible as a cultural object, defining concepts (law book, prophecy, punitive concept, eternal life, apostolic and spiritual missionary work, self-perfection), the language of the Bible, the message of the Bible (God vs. believer vs. divine reader, revelation, the profane vs. sacredness, religious truth and scientific truth),
the orthodox conception of the Bible – the given aspects being textually and contextually interpreted and correlated with the principles, teleology, contents and methodology of literary-artistic education. Through his study the author promotes concepts such as: self-fulfillment through faith and reading is the epistemic link of the Bible and literary-artistic education; the essence of the Bible to be a book lies in its implicit capacity as a complex and specific educational factor; human imperfection is the sole reason for education.
