Doctor Angelicus

St Thomas was "called the Doctor Angelicus, perhaps because of his virtues, in particular the loftiness of his thought and purity of life", said Pope Benedict XVI.

 

My sermon for St Thomas' feast day can be read here.

 

In this painting in San Domenico, Bologna, St Thomas is taught by angels to contemplate the truth of the Eucharist.
