| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, my name is Matt Frad, this is Pints with Aquinas and today I'm going to be |
| 0:06.0 | I guess leading a Bible study with you. This is something I did last week and a lot of people said they |
| 0:12.3 | really got a lot out of it so I thought well let's do it again. And we're going to be drawing from the |
| 0:16.7 | commentary on Matthew from St Thomas Aquinas. This is one half of his commentary on Matthew, chapter 13 |
| 0:26.1 | through 28 but in here he has Latin, Greek and English and so it's a lot bigger than it would be |
| 0:35.0 | if it was just an English of course. So I guess first of all let me just say as I said last week, |
| 0:40.9 | you know people who turn on YouTube are usually in a different headspace they're not in the mood |
| 0:45.2 | for a Bible study which is totally cool I get it. I mean there's a lot of times I go on YouTube |
| 0:49.4 | and I'm not really in the mood for something serious. I'm in the mood for something stupid and |
| 0:53.3 | entertaining. Hopefully this is neither of those things. I mean it might be entertaining but in a |
| 0:58.1 | different sort of way. So my goal isn't to try to capture your attention with a bunch of jump cuts |
| 1:03.9 | and sound effects. Rather it's an invitation for you to along with me read the scriptures |
| 1:11.8 | and to together together to see what Thomas Aquinas has to say on those scriptures. So I'm |
| 1:16.8 | really glad you're here. Here's the verse we want to look at today and I love this parable for a |
| 1:21.9 | number of reasons. One is that it's literally two sentences. That's pretty good. See if you can come |
| 1:27.8 | up with a parable in two sentences. The other reason I like this is because it just I don't know why. |
| 1:33.6 | Maybe I'm reading this in a way that I shouldn't be reading it but it just seems funny this parable. |
| 1:38.4 | Okay so we're reading from Matthew chapter 13 verse 44. Here's what we're going to do. |
| 1:44.0 | I'm going to read it. I'm going to give you my dorky take on it. I want to talk to you about what |
| 1:48.4 | the kingdom of God is and then we'll see what Aquinas has to say on this parable. All right so |
| 1:57.3 | first of all the kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field which a man found and |
| 2:02.0 | covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. |
