Summary/Abstract: Slovak translation of the Third Slavonic Life of St. Nahum of Ochrid, comments especially on the theological content, analyse of the influence of biblical texts, the question of the liturgical form (rite) used by cyrillo-methodian mission (ᾀσματικὴ ἀκολουθία or monastic typikon) and the date of expulsion of Method’s disciples from Great Moravia. The Third Slavonic Life of St. Nahum of Ochrid is known only from two editions arranged by P. A. Lavrov. The only manuscript burnt down during the World War II in the National library in Beograd. The text is very close to the Short Greek Life of St. Nahum, but it is not an exact translation of it (there are several differences). The Slavonic Life was probably translated from Greek in the 17th or 18th century. This short hagiography has a strong polemic dimension, the polemic against Latin Church arises especially in the Filioque question. The author or the compiler of the original text used more sources.
