Episode 6: Aquinas, Allegories, Fluffy Jesus, and Figgies
Episode 6 surfs through the work of Thomas Aquinas and applies his thoughts on allegory to a story in which Jesus Christ curses a Fig tree in the Bible. It covers refutes to allegorical understandings of the Bible common in the medieval age, Thomas Aquinas summae Theologica, Fluffy and non-fluffy Jesus, and the application of allegory to a text.
