St. Thomas Aquinas produced his Commentary on the Romans near the
end of his life while working on the Summa theologiae and
commenting on Aristotle. The doctrinal richness of Paul's Letter to
the Romans was well known to the church fathers, including Origen
and Augustine, on whom Aquinas drew for his commentary. With this
rich collection of essays by leading scholars, both Catholic and
Protestant, Aquinas's commentary will become a major resource for
ecumenical biblical and theological discussion. Authored by
theologians, historians, and biblical scholars, Reading Romans with
St. Thomas Aquinas contributes to a historical reconstruction of
Aquinas's exegesis and theology by addressing such topics as: the
Holy Spirit, the Church, the faith of Abraham, worship, preaching,
justification, sin and grace, predestination, Paul's apostolic
vocation, the Jewish people, human sexuality, the relationship of
flesh and spirit in the human person, the literal sense of
Scripture, Paul's use of the Old Testament, and the relationship of
Aquinas's commentary on Romans to his Summa theologiae. This volume
fits within the contemporary reappropriation of St. Thomas Aquinas,
which emphasises his use of Scripture and the teachings of the
church fathers without neglecting his philosophical insight.

between the Old and New Covenants.
