The Kingdom of God in the Gospel Commentaries of St. Thomas Aquinas: Historical, Ecclesiastical and Eschatological Dimensions
No full textDegree Awarded: Ph.D. Historical Theology. The Catholic University of AmericaThe Kingdom of God in the Gospel Commentaries of St. Thomas Aquinas: Historical, Ecclesiastical and Eschatological DimensionsMatthew L. Martin, Ph.D.Director: Joshua C. Benson, Ph.D.The preaching of the Gospel opens with the proclamation that the Kingdom of God is at hand. For two millennia, Christian theologians have been exploring the depths of that proclamation through reflection on both the Scriptures and on their great predecessors in the tradition. St. Thomas Aquinas stands as one of the greatest theologians of the Church but his understanding of the Kingdom has not been a major subject of investigation. Instead, Thomas' thought on the subject has been ignored or criticized. When it has been addressed, it has been approached almost entirely from the direction of Aquinas as a systematic theologian or philosopher, rather than as an interpreter of Scripture. The Biblical commentaries of Thomas have only recently experienced a resurgence of scholarly interest, and while many great scholars have produced fine work on numerous topics, few have yet turned to the Kingdom.This dissertation seeks to correct that lacuna by examining the Kingdom in the light of Aquinas' scriptural works, especially his commentary on the Gospel of Matthew. After exploring the Kingdom as presented in that text, it looks into his other Biblical commentaries, his broader theological works, and the Matthew commentaries of his contemporaries to provide a full examination of Aquinas' kingdom doctrine in its historical and theological context. This approach not only gives us insight into how he approaches the Bible, but also reveals a fascinating, multifaceted interpretation of the Kingdom which builds on Scripture and, in conjunction with ideas from Aristotle, Pseudo-Dionysius, Johannine mysticism and the mendicant movement, constructs a vision of the Kingdom. This vision is contemplative and evangelical, internal and ecclesiastical, focused on God and others, and manifest in multiple dimensions. Yet the Kingdom for Aquinas remains fundamentally oriented towards an eschatological vision at which the full promise of humanity is revealed and God becomes all in all
Benson family collection, 1866-1899, n.d.
No full textThomas Benson (1804-1857) was born in Ireland. He came to North America with his parents in 1816, eventually settling in Kingston in 1819. Benson became a merchant and moved to Port Hope for business in 1832. During the Rebellion of 1837 he was captain of the volunteers at Chippawa and Navy Island. When hostilities recurred in 1839 Benson was captain and paymaster of the 3rd Battalion of Incorporated Militia at Niagara. By 1845 the Battalion had disbanded, and several years later he went to Peterborough. He became the first mayor of the Town of Peterborough. In 1853 he moved to Port Hope as secretary and treasurer of the Peterborough and Port Hope Railway Co. He died in the Desjardins Canal crash on 12 March 1857 and is buried in Port Hope.
His son Thomas Moore Benson (1833-1915) studied law in Peterborough and Port Hope. He was called to the bar in 1859 and began practicing in Port Hope. In 1882 he was Deputy Judge of the county court and local Judge of the High Court of Justice. During the Fenian Raids of 1866 he was Lieutenant of a company of infantry enrolled in one of the Provisional Battalions under Lt. Col. C.J. Williams. In 1866 he married Mary Edith McCaul (daughter of Rev. John McCaul, President of University College). She gave birth to three daughters, but died in 1870 in childbirth. Benson married Laura Abigail Fuller (daughter of Thomas Brock Fuller, first Bishop of Niagara) in 1874. They had four children.The collection consists of four albums and a portrait of a young woman. Three albums contain carte-de-visite and one album is a scrapbook containing illustrations and photographs. The carte-de-visite albums include some notable Niagara people and groups including Thomas Rodman Merritt and his wife Mary Benson; Cynthia Street Fuller (daughter of Samuel Street and wife of Thomas Brock Fuller); and the Durham Regiment at camp in Thorold at the time of the Fenian Raid in 1866
