Abstract

The Council of Moscow 1666—1667 in the source study plan remained uncharted. The cancellation of the decisions of the Sobor of 1620, meant a new stage of confessionalisation. The article first considered the preparatory materials for this cancellation and the created system of argumentation. For the first time in the preparatory materials for the Council, compilers go beyond the confessionalism era, demonstrating religious tolerance. At the same time, the 6 Act of the Council 1666—1667 was written quite in a confessional spirit. Unlike the resolutions of the Council of 1620, this decision left almost no trace in the Russian script. In the controversy with the Old Believers, they continued to use the methods of the Council of 1620: pre-existing heresies were found in Old Believers.
