Therefore the nature of the human intellect is 1106 1, 75 | have any of them in its own nature; because ~that which is 1107 1, 75 | principle ~contained the nature of a body it would be unable 1108 1, 75 | has its own determinate nature. Therefore it is impossible 1109 1, 75 | organ; since the determinate nature of ~that organ would impede 1110 1, 75 | is complete in a specific nature. The former sense excludes 1111 1, 75 | soul is a part of human nature, it can indeed be called " 1112 1, 75 | and passions of a like nature are ~accompanied by a change 1113 1, 75 | cannot be ~true; for to the nature of the species belongs what 1114 1, 75 | that which has the complete nature of its species. Hence a 1115 1, 75 | soul knows a thing in its nature absolutely: for instance, ~ 1116 1, 75 | to its proper end by the nature of its ~species, whence 1117 1, 75 | because ~it completes the nature of the species. But there 1118 1, 75 | than their intellectual nature. ~Therefore the soul and 1119 1, 75 | species and inequality of nature; because, as ~they are not 1120 1, 75 | accompanied with ~a diversity of nature; thus in species of colors 1121 1, 75 | species and inequality of nature: or ~else the matter is 1122 1, 75 | degrees in the ~sensible nature. Hence, as all sensible 1123 1, 75 | soul; but the soul by ~the nature of its essence can be united 1124 1, 76 | determined according to the nature of the ~matter of which 1125 1, 76 | every body has a determinate nature, it ~would follow that the 1126 1, 76 | intellect has a determinate nature; and thus, it ~would not 1127 1, 76 | which is contrary to the nature of the ~intellect. Therefore 1128 1, 76 | a thing by reason of its nature ~exists in it always.

For ~ 1132 1, 76 | human species. For ~the nature of each thing is shown by 1133 1, 76 | which is contrary to the nature ~of the intellect which 1134 1, 76 | this is contrary to ~the nature of the intellect; for then 1135 1, 76 | operation, understands the nature of a stone, notwithstanding 1136 1, 76 | it is clear that common nature becomes ~distinct and multiplied 1137 1, 76 | conditions - its likeness to the nature of a species or genus will 1138 1, 76 | and multiplication of that nature by means ~of individuating 1139 1, 76 | so that knowledge of the nature of a thing ~in general will 1140 1, 76 | will be a likeness of the nature ~without those things which 1141 1, 76 | not according to its own ~nature, but according to its likeness; 1142 1, 76 | individuality; whereas the nature of the thing understood 1143 1, 76 | understood. For the common ~nature is understood as apart from 1144 1, 76 | A[2]) in the order of nature, holds the ~lowest place 1145 1, 76 | says (Div. Nom. vii). But nature never fails in necessary ~ 1146 1, 76 | belongs to the inferior nature pre-exists more perfectly 1147 1, 76 | body was immortal not by ~nature, but by a gift of Divine 1148 1, 76 | what is suitable to the nature of ~things, as Augustine 1149 1, 76 | it cannot be limited by nature ~to certain fixed natural 1150 1, 76 | of all these, man has by nature his reason and ~his hands, 1151 1, 76 | which by reason of its very nature ~is united to matter as 1152 1, 76 | say, is a body and of the nature of the fifth essence; so ~ 1153 1, 77 | degree, according to his nature, of ~those to whom beatitude 1154 1, 77 | Wherefore we seek ~to know the nature of a power from the act 1155 1, 77 | directed, and ~consequently the nature of a power is diversified, 1156 1, 77 | power is diversified, as the nature of the ~act is diversified. 1157 1, 77 | is diversified. Now the nature of an act is diversified 1158 1, 77 | that which belongs to the nature of an animal, that is to 1159 1, 77 | which the power of its very nature is ~directed. Thus the senses 1160 1, 77 | the senses of their very nature are directed to the ~passive 1161 1, 77 | soul does not regard the nature of the contrary as such, 1162 1, 77 | according to the order of nature, forasmuch as perfect ~things 1163 1, 77 | perfect ~things are by their nature prior to imperfect things; 1164 1, 77 | if considered in their nature; ~although they may be said 1165 1, 77 | order of ~perfection and nature, are the principles of the 1166 1, 38 | manifest that love has the nature ~of a first gift, through 1167 1, 38 | by way of a word, whose nature it is to be the similitude 1168 1, 39 | one "suppositum" of one nature, as is clear in the case 1169 1, 39 | subsisting in the divine nature. But relation as referred 1170 1, 39 | subject of the specific nature, ~it follows that individuals 1171 1, 39 | OBJ 3: Further, the divine nature is the same as the divine 1172 1, 39 | three persons are of one nature.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[39] A[ 1173 1, 39 | derives its ~knowledge, the nature of the species is made individual 1174 1, 39 | the matter, ~and thus the nature is as the form, and the 1175 1, 39 | 1~Reply OBJ 3: Because "nature" designates the principle 1176 1, 39 | may be said to be of one ~nature which agree in some action, 1177 1, 39 | saying they are "of one nature."~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[39] A[ 1178 1, 39 | rightly? . . . The oneness of nature does not ~result from division, 1179 1, 39 | possession, but ~from one nature being proper to both Father 1180 1, 39 | subsisting in an intellectual ~nature. But we say there are three 1181 1, 39 | three "supposita" of human nature there are three ~humanities, 1182 1, 39 | person" is not essence or ~nature, but personality. So, as 1183 1, 39 | properly according to their nature, stand for the essence, 1184 1, 39 | or community of the human nature, however, is not a reality, ~ 1185 1, 39 | not stand for the common nature, unless this is required 1186 1, 39 | it stands for the common nature, but by some adjunct it 1187 1, 39 | repugnant to the divine nature. If, ~however, something 1188 1, 39 | thus ~points to identity of nature. This is, however, either 1189 1, 39 | signification it can of its own nature stand for ~person. Thus 1190 1, 39 | belong to "supposita." So "nature from nature," and "wisdom 1191 1, 39 | supposita." So "nature from nature," and "wisdom from wisdom" ~ 1192 1, 39 | generated has not the same nature ~numerically as the generator, 1193 1, 39 | the generator, but another nature, numerically distinct, ~ 1194 1, 39 | God begotten has the same nature numerically as the begetter. 1195 1, 39 | begetter. So the ~divine nature in the Son is not begotten 1196 1, 39 | supposita" of the divine nature. For the Father is not ~ 1197 1, 39 | for the universal ~human nature. So it is false to say, " 1198 1, 39 | supposita" of the divine nature, "God is the Trinity," ~ 1199 1, 39 | truly and perfectly the nature of the Father. ~To insinuate 1200 1, 39 | creatures. For "power" has the nature of a principle, ~and so 1201 1, 39 | years. "Goodness," as the ~nature and object of love, has 1202 1, 39 | seems more to belong to ~the nature of a natural power.~Aquin.: 1203 1, 39 | person, ~although in its own nature it is not a person; as we 1204 1, 40 | the persons. So, since the nature of a form ~requires it to 1205 1, 40 | differ. But it is against the nature of ~origin that it should 1206 1, 40 | said that ~relation is by nature to be towards another, the 1207 1, 40 | simultaneous in the order of ~nature.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[40] A[ 1208 1, 40 | hypostasis of a rational nature is a person, as ~appears 1209 1, 40 | substance of a rational nature." Hence, to have hypostasis ~ 1210 1, 40 | the rationality from ~the nature, but not the property from 1211 1, 40 | subsisting in a rational ~nature. Hence, if the distinguishing 1212 1, 40 | the ~rationality of the nature removed; for both person 1213 1, 41 | 1/1~OBJ 3: Further, the nature of action is of itself to 1214 1, 41 | Father by will, and not by nature.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[41] A[ 1215 1, 41 | of this is that will and nature differ in their manner of ~ 1216 1, 41 | causation, in such a way that nature is determined to one, while 1217 1, 41 | one way, the principle is ~nature. What, however, can exist 1218 1, 41 | is far from the divine ~nature, whereas it belongs to the 1219 1, 41 | whereas it belongs to the nature of a created being; because 1220 1, 41 | Son, not ~by will, but by nature. Wherefore Hilary says ( 1221 1, 41 | perfect birth gave the Son ~a nature derived from a substance 1222 1, 41 | Son in such a manner by nature ~that the will to beget 1223 1, 41 | from His ~own essence or nature, it follows that the essence 1224 1, 41 | follows that the essence or nature of the ~Father is the principle 1225 1, 41 | God the Father, of His nature, without beginning, begot 1226 1, 41 | begotten, whereas the divine nature cannot be parted; whence 1227 1, 41 | transmit any part of His nature, but communicates His whole 1228 1, 41 | but communicates His whole nature to ~Him, the distinction 1229 1, 41 | is "of" an intellectual nature. In this way, then, we say 1230 1, 41 | referred to ~the created nature assumed by the Son, so that 1231 1, 41 | is generated receives the nature of the generator and ~this 1232 1, 41 | not receive the Creator's nature. Thus the ~Son is called 1233 1, 41 | generation the unity of nature in the Father and the Son. 1234 1, 41 | his begetter in his human ~nature, in virtue of which the 1235 1, 41 | begets Him, in the divine ~nature. Wherefore the divine nature 1236 1, 41 | nature. Wherefore the divine nature in the Father is in Him 1237 1, 41 | cannot but ~contain that nature from which it proceeded; 1238 1, 41 | Father begets is the divine nature, in ~which the Son is like 1239 1, 41 | generation is the "work of nature," not of nature ~generating, 1240 1, 41 | work of nature," not of nature ~generating, but of nature, 1241 1, 41 | nature ~generating, but of nature, as being that by which 1242 1, 41 | begetting signifies the divine ~nature directly, but the relation 1243 1, 41 | we have said (A[2]), and nature is ~determined to one.~Aquin.: 1244 1, 42 | to the perfection of some nature or form: to ~this sort of 1245 1, 42 | perfection of that form or nature: such is the greatness of 1246 1, 42 | things of a more perfect nature are of ~longer duration; 1247 1, 42 | things of a more ~perfect nature are more powerful to act. 1248 1, 42 | because not ~only is the same nature in both Father and Son, 1249 1, 42 | wherein is absent equality of nature. The ~third is like the 1250 1, 42 | is clear that equality of nature or of time ~is absent in 1251 1, 42 | the ~Son by will, but by nature; and also that the Father' 1252 1, 42 | and also that the Father's nature was perfect ~from eternity; 1253 1, 42 | there exists an order of nature?~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[42] A[ 1254 1, 42 | does not exist ~an order of nature. For whatever exists in 1255 1, 42 | notion. But the order of nature does not signify the ~essence, 1256 1, 42 | Therefore there is no order ~of nature in God.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[ 1257 1, 42 | Further, wherever order of nature exists, there one comes 1258 1, 42 | at least, according to nature and intellect. But in the 1259 1, 42 | persons there is no order of nature.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[42] A[ 1260 1, 42 | distinction in the divine nature. Therefore it is not subject ~ 1261 1, 42 | to order; and order of nature does not exist in it.~Aquin.: 1262 1, 42 | OBJ 4: Further, the divine nature is the divine essence. But 1263 1, 42 | Therefore neither is there of nature.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[42] A[ 1264 1, 42 | is called 'the order of nature': in ~the words of Augustine ( 1265 1, 42 | Reply OBJ 1: The order of nature signifies the notion of 1266 1, 42 | comes first in the order of nature and reason, if formally 1267 1, 42 | simultaneous in the order of nature and reason, ~inasmuch as 1268 1, 42 | persons subsisting in one nature. So, ~neither on the part 1269 1, 42 | neither on the part of the nature, nor on the part the relations, 1270 1, 42 | not even in the order of nature and reason.~Aquin.: SMT 1271 1, 42 | Reply OBJ 3: The order of nature means not the ordering of 1272 1, 42 | means not the ordering of nature ~itself, but the existence 1273 1, 42 | 4 Para. 1/1~Reply OBJ 4: Nature in a certain way implies 1274 1, 42 | correctly called ~the order of nature than the order of essence.~ 1275 1, 42 | but the perfection of His nature. ~Now it belongs to the 1276 1, 42 | Now it belongs to the very nature of paternity and filiation 1277 1, 42 | of the perfection of the ~nature which is in the Father, 1278 1, 42 | equal, because he has a like nature."~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[42] A[ 1279 1, 42 | understood of Christ's human nature, ~wherein He is less than 1280 1, 42 | Him; but in His divine ~nature He is equal to the Father. 1281 1, 42 | signifies the perfection of nature, as above explained (A[1], 1282 1, 42 | perfection of ~the divine nature exists in each person.~Aquin.: 1283 1, 42 | speak, ~follows His own nature in begetting an unchangeable 1284 1, 42 | God. So we ~understand the nature of God to subsist in Him, 1285 1, 42 | consequence of perfection in nature. In creatures, ~for instance, 1286 1, 42 | that the more perfect the nature, the greater power ~is there 1287 1, 42 | that is, in perfection of nature.
