Abstract

The Aquinate consigns that including in the divine interior, emanation is an order of origin between coincidents or concurrents; in the divine exterior, emanation is an order of origin between incoincidents, be it in the entitative plane (according to the order from essence to existence, and from the faculties to the substance), or be it in the operative plane (according to the order from faculties to act). In this work, only the topics concerned with the entitative level are dealt with, which express two orders of emanation: that of creatures as such and that of the faculties
