32 H.W.M. RIKHOF language than in the other discussions. One of these issues is concerned with a bonum that is not enclosed in human existence and nature as such and that can not be found through an analysis of the foundations or the essence of human existence: the final beatitude. This final beatitude an individual or a community can not realise by own force, but is given by God. One of the biblical passages Thomas quotes in this context is Rom. 6,13: Gratia Dei vita aetema. This means that the purpose of the whole of life (individual and communal), that what life is all about, is revealed in Scripture. The second issue is related to the first, for it is a specification of it. It is about the relation of all kinds of government to the final goal: the Triune God. Thomas analyses here the priestly kingship of Christ. Surveying the various articles De Grijs has written on Aquinas, one notices the dominant attention to method, to questions related to how to read Aquinas. This places De Grijs in a broad discussion. His contribution to this discussion seems to me not so much his insistence on Thomas the theologian - others have emphasized that too- but rather his insistence on the type of theology Thomas presents and represents. Moreover, by analysing precisely and in detail the way Thomas uses Scripture, De Grijs has also shown how deeply steeped Thomas' theology is in Scripture. The combination of the transcendental reflection with the firm foundation in Scripture makes Thomas' theology important and relevant to present theologians who have rediscovered the primary place of Scripture in theology. Thomas' theology shows that such an attention to Scripture can be fruitfully combined with the transcendental reflection, although often the contrary is thought and the attention to Scripture is exclusively linked to the categorical reflection. De Grijs, though, has not limited himself to the question of method. In the discussion with Schoonenberg and Wiederkehr, in his analysis of Thomas' use of Scripture he pays also attention to content and theme. To one theme in particular I now tum. 3.2 Power and might It is certainly remarkable that De Grijs in three articles discusses an unfinished book that can not be considered to be one of Aquinas' major works: De Regno. Why this interest? In the case of one article the answer is not so difficult: it is a contribution to a Festschrift
THEOLOGY OF PROVOCATIVE RECEPTIVITY 33 dedicated to prof. J. de Graaf, who was president of a society called "Church and Peace". The editors used that name as theme and title and asked people for specific contributions. But for the others such an occasion is not indicated. In both articles, though, some clues can be found. After clarifying and expounding Thomas' intentions in De Regno, De Grijs concludes that Thomas wants to work as a theologian. In a footnote he comments; "it might cause some wonderment that I calI De Regno a theological opus and not, like Chenu, a piece of political philosophy. There are after all passages without any religious terms. But Thomas never suffered from the misapprehension that theologians should limit themselves to religion or that they are only allowed to interpret profane realities religiously. Every reality, he wrote in the Scriptum (In I Sent., Prol.) is as such ex Deo and ad Deum. This does not alienate the reality but brings it to itself. Thomas can write about government without turning it into religion, while he also searches for the ex Deo and ad Deum of it (42, p. 250, note 9). This theological interest returns in the third article, but there it is, as already mentioned, concentrated on the methodological question about the use of Scripture. This theological interest in the question of power and government is a recurrent theme in De Grijs' work. That De Grijs choose De Regno for his contribution to the 700th anniversary of Thomas' death is not so strange, for power was, as I already mentioned, the main theme of our doctoral program in that period, and De Grijs supervised six licentiate's theses related to that program." When one searches in earlier works one discovers that he discusses that theme there too (cf. 8, 1/, 18, 23). And it returns in later articles, in articles about the church (40, 49) and in an article about God's government of the world (47). But before turning to that broader discussion, I want to pay attention to these three articles on De Regno, for they contain elements that return and can be considered as keys to that broader discussion. The three articles can be viewed as three different lectures of the same Cf. Het Utrechts theologencollectief, Wat hier gebeurt is macht. Een actueel theologisch onderzoek, Hilversum, 1975.
