Catena Aurea (Gospel of St. Luke - Part 2)

by Saint Thomas Aquinas

The *Catena Aurea* (Golden Chain) is a collection of commentaries on the Gospel of St. Luke, compiled by St. Thomas Aquinas. It draws together the insights of over eighty early Church Fathers, presenting their interpretations of each verse in a way that simulates a discussion among them. Aquinas, known for his profound theological knowledge, meticulously arranged these commentaries, providing readers with a rich and diverse understanding of the Gospel's meaning. The work was commissioned by Pope Urban IV to ensure that everyone could access the established understanding of the Gospels as interpreted by the early Church.
