OverviewExcerpt from The Mystery of the Holy Trinity, in Oldest Judaism The Doctors and Fathers of the Church agree in recognizing that the august-mystery of the Blessed Trinity is not found explicitly revealed in any of the pages of the Old Testament. This mystery is the supreme manifestation of God's most intimate life. To it, the entire Christian revelation converges, and the Divine Master seems to have reserved to Him self the privilege of teaching it to men in person, when He dwelt amongst them. With good reason, however, could St. Augustine say that the Scrip tures of the Old and the New Testament, if read with a true Christian Spirit, testify that the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost are one only God in the unity of essence and substance. In fact, from the earliest dawn of man's existence, the Divine Goodness has deigned to manifest some thing of the Splendor of this supreme and adorable mystery. On casting a glance over the majestic pages of Genesis, it seems impossible to resist the impression that, beneath a form of elocution strange to us, but easy and altogether sublime, there is hid den something mysterious pertaining to the essence and personality of that God, who reveals Himself to our astonished sense in the pronouncing of a word. Which, resounding through the fathomless abysses of nothingness, calls forth into existence the heavens and the earth, and the whole creation, of which they form part.
