  • quote: “Donde o dever-se admitir que a multidão e a distinção das coisas vêm da intenção do agente primeiro, Deus. Pois, trouxe as coisas ao ser, para comunicar a sua bondade às criaturas, que a representam. E, como esta não pode ser representada suficientemente por uma só criatura, produziu muitas e diversas; e assim o que falta a uma, para representar a divina bondade, é suprido por outra. Pois, a bondade, existente em Deus pura e simplesmente, bem como uniformemente, existe nas criaturas multíplice e divididamente. Por onde, com mais perfeição participa da divina bondade e a representa todo o universo do que outra criatura qualquer. – E por ser a divina sabedoria a causa da distinção das coisas, diz Moisés que as coisas são distintas pelo Verbo de Deus, que é a concepção da sabedoria; e isso mesmo diz a Escritura (Gn 1, 3): E disse Deus: Faça-se a luz… E dividiu a luz das trevas.” author: “Aquinas”
