This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologiae, 1st part of the 2nd part, question 94 (IaIIae, q. 94), and examines the three general precepts of the Natural Law.
