In the first seven books Augustine begins by searching the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments for clues to understanding and then argues in the language of philosophy and logic to defend the orthodox statement of the doctrine against the Arians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the last eight books Augustine seeks to understand the mystery of the divine Trinity by observing an analogous trinity in the image of God, which is the human mind; and in so doing, he also suggests a program for the serious Christian of spiritual self-discovery and renewal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis second edition is newly produced, now featuring convenient footnotes rather than the previously used endnotes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"What Father Hill has provided is a splendid translation, made from a trustworthy Latin text, of what is for some of us the foundation work of Christian theology. He has fitted out his translation, clearly the best of the four that have been made into English, with notes that go well beyond the perfunctory and a 38-page introduction that is a delight to read.\" (Barry Ulanov, \u003ci\u003eJournal of Religion and Health\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New City Press NY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47030731735280,"sku":"9781565484467","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781565484467_p0.jpg?v=1763767725","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781565484467","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
