Saint Sava and his teaching,

This article examines the reception of the theological thought of Saint Sava of Serbia (13th century) within contemporary Serbian Orthodox theology. Adopting a historical and comparative approach, Vladimir Cvetković analyzes the way in which three major theological figures of the 20th and 21st centuries — Saint Nicholas of Žiča, Saint Justin the New of Ćelije, and Bishop Athanasius Jevtić — have interpreted and transmitted the spiritual and doctrinal heritage of the first archbishop of the autocephalous Serbian Church. The central idea is that the thought of Saint Sava constituted a structuring point of reference for these successive theologians, each integrating it into his own ecclesiological and spiritual vision. The contribution of the article lies in shedding light on a theological continuity specific to the Serbian tradition, articulated around the founding figure of Saint Sava.
