Abstract
Christianity, as a set of ideas and an institutional state, is formed in the practical vocabulary of its time — the early principate, the semantics of which is influenced by the meaning of some terms and their use, established and wellestablished in the era of Hellenism.
The article examines the change in the category of citizenship, which lost its original meaning in the dominant era, with a change in political practice, and almost completely lost its meaning in the Middle Ages, with the radical transformation of the foundations of social organization in the European civilizational area.
