Walking The Way

Dicit Glossa super Joan. xiv: Ego sum via, et veritas, et vita: via qua itur, veritas qua pes dirigitur, vita ad quam pervenitur: via per praeceptum, consilium, et exemplum: veritas per doctrinae verbum: vita per praemium. Eccli. xxiv: In me gratia omnis viae et veritatis, in me omnis spes vitaeet virtutis. Virtus enim confortat ad viam per meritum, et veritas illuminat ad vitam per doctrinam et Spiritus sancti inspirationem. Sanctus Albertus Magnus Commentarium In Evangelium Lucam, Caput II Source: Here p200

The gloss on John chapter fourteen, verse six, 'I am the way and the truth and the life,' says that the way is the path, and truth is that by which the step is directed, and life is that to which is comes. The way is through precept and counsel and example, the truth is through the word of teaching, life is the reward. In the twenty fourth chapter of Ecclesiasticus, 'In me all grace of the way and truth, in me all hope of life and virtue.' Virtue strengthens on the way through merit, and truth illuminates for life through teaching and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Saint Albert The Great, Commentary On The Gospel of St Luke, Chapter 2
