Description
Summary:Thomas Aquinas frequently refers to 1 Tim 2, 1 in his discussions of the liturgical structure of the Mass. In his use of this verse, Thomas draws on a tradition of liturgical exegesis dating to Augustine of Hippo which pairs the four types of prayer named by Paul with the different parts of the Mass. This essay first analyzes the three main passages where Thomas draws on this tradition. It then describes the original context of Augustine's articulation of this tradition and traces the reception of Augustine's exegesis in Haimo of Auxerre and the Glossa Ordinaria. It concludes with a comparison of the Glossa Ordinaria and Thomas Aquinas's writings, showing how Thomas benefitted from this tradition of interpretation while remaining free to adapt it to his own needs.
