Summary/Abstract: In this paper we present and analyze some selected liturgical rubrics from the Mount Athos and two titles of the two last chapters of the very important manuscript Nomokanon GR 14 (17th c.) of theSerbian Orthodox Monastery Grabovac (Hungary). These rubrics and also titles of the two last chapters,which we have found in already-mentioned manuscript, were being formed by translation from Greek intoChurch Slavonic language of the Serbian redaction. Selected liturgical rubrics were being translated fromthe relevant parts of Athonite Typicon and Canon Law Tradition, and two titles of the two last chapters ofNomocanon GR 14 from a work of Gabriel Seviros, Metropolitan of Philadelphia (c. 1540–1616). We havealso explained the main theological motives for such a translation and redaction of these texts.
