apostles, hussitism, the Unity of Brethren, Judas Iscariot, Vavřinec z BřezoveAbstract
The aim of the article is to show how the Hussites referred the apostolic pattern to themselves. One of the fields where such an attitude may be observed is the liturgy of the hussite radicals described by Vavřinec z Březove – which at least intended to replicate the Last Supper, and the general conviction about the necessity of communion under both kinds to salvation. Another field is the repeated and fierce discussion over the role of Judas Iscariot and the meaning of being the true apostle. The will to be the new apostles among Christians seduced by evil was so strong among the reformers, that the new generations took over the idea and confronted it with their forerunners.
