Posveta and blagoslov from a general-language and a theological standpoint
Stjepan Babić
Sažetak
In Croatian theological terminology a distinction is made between the words posvetiti
(consecrate), posveta (consecration) and blagosloviti (bless). blagoslov (blessing).
Posvetiti is used as a rule with sacral objects, such as the church. altar. chalice,
paten. Blagosloviti is reserved for secular objects: the buildings (schools. homes,
houses). premises. food. flags. vehicles and the !ike. No such strict distinction is made
in general Croatian. particulary so in the usage thus far. The author therefore wonders
whether a narrowly specialist. theological distinction is obligatory in general Croatian.
