Adult Faith Formation, Understanding St Thomas Aquinas -- June 9th, Session 3 -- The Birth and Public Ministry of Jesus

 We discuss the early portion of the Life of Christ through to the Transfiguration -- ST III, qq 35-45.


We consider St Thomas' commentary on the details of Jesus' birth, his presentation in the Temple, and his public ministry and teaching. Especially considering the perfection of Jesus' teaching, and why it is that he chose not to write any portion of the Bible.
