Common use of Chapters Clause in Contracts

Chapters. The aim of this study is to answer this question: what meaning did divine forgiveness have in the thought of Xxxxx of Alexandria? To answer this question, the five sub-questions formulated above based on the preliminary exploration of Spec. I, 235–238 (see pp. 43–46) will have to be answered. These sub-questions will be addressed in the subsequent chapters of this study by means of analysis of one or more relevant passages from Xxxxx’x works. The sub-questions will be presented in relation to Xxxxx’x doctrine of God, his view on humans and his ethical outlooks, shaping the focus of each following chapter: Chapter 2 is devoted to the questions that arise from Xxxxx’x presentation of divine forgiveness in relation to his doctrine of God, namely: • Forgiveness implies a relationship, but how can the transcendent God relate to and interact with creation at all? • Does divine pardon imply that human actions can hurt and anger God and that God can be made to change his mind? Chapter 3 is devoted to the question that arises from Xxxxx’x presentation of divine forgiveness in relation to his view on human beings, namely: • How can humans interact with and relate to the transcendent God? Chapter 4 is devoted to the questions that arise Xxxxx’x presentation of divine forgiveness in relation to his ethical outlooks, namely: • Why would and could humans, as creatures of the supreme good God, intentionally do evil? • What are the consequences of committing evil for the wrongdoer and how would and could those consequences involve God to remedy them? Finally, in Chapter 5 I will return to Spec. I, 235–238 to integrate the results of Chapters 2–4 and answer my main question: what was Xxxxx’x view on divine forgiveness? In each chapter, the approach will be to provide a close reading and analysis of one or more relevant passages from Xxxxx’x treatises. Xxxxx did not discuss divine forgiveness in a systematic way. Nevertheless, analysing key passages and illuminating interconnections enable us to grasp what he meant when he wrote about it. — Xxxxx’x doctrine of God —
