Acknowledgments
Our gratitude goes first to the contributors to this volume whose dedicated scholar-
ship made this book possible. Most of the essays in this volume are revised versions
of papers delivered at the international conference “Thomas Aquinas and the Re-
newal of Biblical Theology” (April 24-26, 2017), sponsored by the Faculty of Theolo-
gy of the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, Poland and the Thomistic Insti-
tute in Warsaw. Without the support of the entire faculty and staff of these institutes
the event would not have been possible.
We would like to thank also Piotr Paweł Orlowski for his financial assistance and the
entire Biblical Thomism Project in Toruń.
