Sažetak
This paper presents in three parts the Mystery of Holy
Unction, i.e. the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick. The first part
exposes the Scriptural foundation of this holy mystery, with special
reference to the Letter of James (Js 5, 14-15). In the second part
the liturgy of the Mystery of Holy Unction, as well as the liturgical
texts and testimonies of patristic tradition, is explained. The third
part is devoted to western tradition, particularly to the Catholic
Church documents that speak of the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick, such as the decrees of the Council of Florence, the Council
of Trent and the Second Vatican Council as well as The Rite of
Anointing and Pastoral Care of the Sick of Pope Paul VI. We have
also added the main provisions from the Code of Canon Law and
interpretations of Catechism of the Catholic Church. In conclusion
we have stated that there are many more common elements in
theology and liturgy of the Mystery of Holy Unction / sacrament
of Anointing of the Sick, than the differences, and that this can
be one of significant elements in drawing closer the Eastern and
Western Church.
