Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Though wielding an influence over philosophy that endures to this day, Thomas Aquinas did not consider himself a philosopher, but a Biblical scholar, whose expositions go right to the meaning of the texts. In his commentary on the Book of Job, he draws on Jewish philosophers to explain the meaning of this mystifying but seminal book of the Old Testament as a fable about divine providence. In a new translation and a Latin-English format, Aquinas's "lyrical" exposition of this rarely commented work will speak to anyone who desires a deeper meditation on this difficult but important work of the Bible.
