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.
