Abstract

The article presents the central place of the Bible in the life of Ulrich Zwingli. The Reformation in Zurich, whose origins were mainly his work, revealed this in several fields: in preaching, theological disputes and the so-called “The school of prophecy” (Prophezei). On each of these fields, the Swiss reformer exhibited the authority of the Bible – incomparable with other authorities. At the same time, he emphasized the role of the Holy Spirit in the interpretation of biblical texts. The truth about the inspiring work of the Holy Spirit and the truth about the sovereignty of God are at the heart of the life and theological heritage of the reformer from Zurich.

Keywords:

Bible, Holy Spirit, sermon, theology, “school of prophecy” (Prophezei)
