Abstract

The paper analyses the stages of formation of the clergy in the provisions of the synods of Zamość and Lviv. The research aims to clarify and structure the main approaches and principles of the clergy formation process in the statutes of the 1720 Zamość Synod of and the 1891 Lviv Synod. Particularly, the author analysed the normative documents of these synods concerning the regulation of the formation of the clergy in the Church. The stages and methods for preparing candidates for the priesthood are considered. The emphasis is on a gradual logical ordering of the normative documents concerning priestly formation in the Ukrainian Church.
