Sažetak

The author attempts to offer liturgical comprehension of the presbytery and spirituality on the basis of the selected paragraphs from the euchology of priestly ordination and in ac-cordance with the mystagogical reading of certain ritual elements. Hermeneutic approach to authentic euchological context of the words “dignitas” and “spiritum sanctitas” points to a comprehension of the presbytery as being always in serving relation to the people of God and to episcopal service. It is of great value to notice the attempt at analysing the speech about the priest's dignity, taking as the starting point the primeval „divine dignity“ given to man by the act of creation and renewed by the Christ's act of redemption. The priest is a servant of that dignity, with a mission to continue the priesthood of Christ, ie bring people to dignity that is in Christ given to all. It is from that dignity and mission that one can read the distinctiveness of priestly spirituality that originated precisely from the priestly ministry. The nature of the priestly ministry, which is defined in euchology, liturgy reveals through ritual images of the initial dialogue, prostration and laying on of hands and through the ceremony of anoiting and dressing.
