Dziewictwo Najświętszej Maryi Panny według Hieronima ze Strydonu
Virginity of the Blessed Virgin Mary according to Hieronim of Strydon

Summary/Abstract: Hieronimus of Strydon takes on the defence of the virginity of Virgin Mary because of Jesus Christ. He recognizes ascetic life run in the desert conditions as the most perfect way of imitating our Saviour. According to Hieronymus, in this way of implementation of Christian vocation most important thing is virginity. He wrote on this in his works. In one of his writtings, aimed against Helvidius, he defends the virginity of Virgin Mary. He believes that she implements this ideal of Christian life in a perfect way. The defence and the same time an apology of Christianity, which means also veneration of the Mother of Jesus, allow us to learn of his linguistic, exegetic skills and mostly of his knowledge of the Bible. Apart from that the most frequently undertaken theological questions are, sometimes quite turbulent, arguments on the virginity of Virgin Mary.
