On Veritatis Splendor by Fr. Joseph Koterski: 6. Moral Theology and the Four Senses of Scripture

This lecture reviews the four senses (levels of meaning) of the Sacred Scriptures: the literal sense (what the human author under divine inspiration intended) and the three spiritual senses (what the Holy Spirit intended not only by the words but also by the persons and the actions described), namely, the typological, the moral, and the anagogical senses. The lecture then shows the use of these various levels of meaning in Veritatis splendor.
