QUESTION 26

OF THE DIVINE BEATITUDE

(In Four Articles)

After considering all that pertains to the unity of the divine

essence, we come to treat of the divine beatitude. Concerning this,

there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether beatitude belongs to God?

(2) In regard to what is God called blessed; does this regard His act

of intellect?

(3) Whether He is essentially the beatitude of each of the blessed?

(4) Whether all other beatitude is included in the divine beatitude?
