Moral Theology: Biblical Foundations
Rev. Benedict M. Ashley, O.P.
International Catholic University Classics Collecition, recorded in 1995
Vatican II called for a revision of moral theology on a more biblical basis. Why was that necessary after centuries of development of moral theology? And what does that mean for Aquinas? This course discusses the formation of Catholic moral theology as based upon Sacred Scripture, with the guiding light of Sacred Moral Tradition. It deals with the moral theology of both the Old and New Testaments and covers in special detail the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity.
