Abstract
Decree on ecumenism is still the chief source of the Catholic involvement in ecumenical movement. Due to continuously changing of social and cultural conditions and in face of new challenges to ecumenism, it appears as indispensable tool to work out the hermeneutic principles of the Decree content, particularly, of the Catholic principles of ecumenism. This task was taken on by Rev. Prof. Leonard Gorka SVD, former employee and Director of the Ecumenical Institute of the John Paul II Catholic University in Lublin. He listed these principles and described a historical context of their genesis in his commentary on Decree, which was presented in his numerous publications and during his lectures. Article stresses the need for the hermeneutics of Decree on ecumenism and inquires the key elements of hermeneutic commentary to Decree created by Lublin theologian.
