Summa Theologica - 03 Pars Prima, Angels and the Six Days

by Saint Thomas Aquinas

The *Summa Theologica* is a monumental work of medieval Christian theology written by Saint Thomas Aquinas. This section, *Pars Prima*, focuses on the nature of angels and the events of the six days of creation, as described in the Book of Genesis. Aquinas explores these topics through the lens of reason, using philosophical arguments and scriptural interpretation to develop a systematic understanding of God's creation and the place of angels within it. The *Summa Theologica* is a significant text for understanding medieval thought and the development of Western theology.
