Catena Aurea, St. Matthew - Vol 1, Part 3

by Saint Thomas Aquinas

The *Catena Aurea* (Golden Chain) on St. Matthew, by St. Thomas Aquinas, is a compilation of commentaries on the Gospel of Matthew by early Church Fathers. It presents their interpretations of each verse in a format that resembles a discussion, highlighting their insights and showing Aquinas' own familiarity with their writings. The work, commissioned by Pope Urban IV, aimed to provide a resource for understanding Scripture according to the unanimous consent of the Fathers, a key principle of the Church. It serves as a valuable reference work for theologians, students, and anyone interested in the history of biblical interpretation.
