A Trinitarian Reading of Aquinas's Treatise on Law

McIlroy, David H.

Authors

David H. McIlroy



Abstract

This paper argues that Aquinas's treatise on law is misread in both philosophy and theology and that its trinitarian dynamic has been ignored. The paper then develops a new reading of Aquinas's treatise on law in which his concerns with soteriology are seen to be at the heart of the treatise, and his comments on human law are seen to be tangential to his main purposes.
