This article favors the interpretation proposed by De Intellectu. It is apposite to say that the Intellectu in habitu is capable of thinking because it, on the one hand, receives, the content provided by the potential intellect, and, on the other hand, receives the forms of intelligibility provided the divine intellect. |
