This book makes a major contribution to contemporary theological
and philosophical debates, bridging scriptural and metaphysical
approaches to the triune God.
* * Bridges the gap between scriptural and metaphysical approaches
to biblical narratives.
* Retrieves Aquinas’s understanding of theology as
contemplative wisdom.
* Structured around Aquinas’s treatise on the triune God in
his ‘Summa Theologiae’.
* Argues that intellectual contemplation is part of a broader
spiritual journey towards a better understanding of God.
* Contributes to the current resurgence of Thomistic theology in
both Protestant and Catholic circles.
