| Riepilogo: | Introduction; I. The Hellenistic Meaning of ‘Anathema’; II. The Old Testament Meaning of ‘Anathema’; III. ‘Anathema’ in the New Testament; IV. Interpretation of ‘anathema’ and ‘excommunication’ within the Early Church; Conclusion Analysing the meaning of ‘anathema ’ based on the Old and New Testaments, we must underline that those Hebrew words which used for similar purposes do not have exactly the same content as the Greek term. This difference in terms of content can be observed not only in the use of several expressions (i.e. the dichotomy of the meaning of ‘anathema ’), but also in the possibility of narrowing its meaning in the New Testament and offurther specification of the term in the early Church ’s use, both in theological and ecclesiastical aspects. The specified content of ‘anathema ’and its distinction from ‘excommunication ’ had been defined in the second half of the 9th century. This gradual process of clarification gives the ecclesiastical meaning of ‘anathema ’by the middle of the 12,h century (i.e. Decretum Gratiani) and its final precision in the 13lh century. |
