Starting from the concrete reality that each fi eld of research implicitly relates to a signifi cant amount of principles and structural foundations, also called „sources”, our research attempts to highlight the role of the Holy Scripture in apologetic terms. „The apologetic foundations of the Scripture” represents a perspective in itself, open and willing to have a dialogue with the factors of a constantly changing society. And if, for niche sciences, these foundations or principles incorporate a limited elasticity, in the (...) case of the apologetic approach the factor of relating to the basic elements becomes almost inexhaustible. This is due to a permanent relationship to the Holy Scripture, par excellence the source of all fundamental existential principles. We thus demonstrate, in our study, that the scriptural foundations of orthodox apologetics have a universal validity, anachronistically confi rming themselves in the dialogue with profane sciences.
