Podcast Description for February 5 – Through the Church Fathers in a Year
In today’s readings, we explore the symbolic meaning of the Old Testament food laws in The Epistle of Barnabas, where spiritual purity is emphasized through dietary restrictions. Augustine reflects on the deceptive pleasure of sin and the longing for true righteousness in Confessions, recounting how companionship in wrongdoing made his sins more appealing. Lastly, Aquinas addresses the multiplicity of divine ideas, explaining how God’s perfect knowledge contains distinct forms without division.
