Abstrakt/ Abstract: This study examines the theological focus of the marriage ceremony in the Esztergom tradition following the Council of Trent. It compares the Esztergom marriage rite, as outlined in the Rituale Strigoniense of 1625 under Cardinal Peter Pázmány, with the Rituale Romanum of 1614. The analysis highlights key textual and ritualistic differences, particularly in marital consent, the blessing of rings, and the use of multiple languages. The study further explores the theological implications of these variations, emphasizing a richer, more sacramental understanding of marriage in the Esztergom tradition, contrasting with the more juridical approach of the Roman rite. The study also explores how the Esztergom ritual’s use of “amare” in Rituale Strigoniense aligns better with contemporary theological views of marriage as a personal, sacramental union of love, especially in light of post-Vatican II teachings.
