  • 1 FINIS (END)

    конец, окончание; по Фоме, «окончание - не то, что является таковым благодаря другим вещам, но другие вещи есть, благодаря ему» (Thomas Aquinas. In lib. II Met., lect. 4, 316). «Конец - это то, что предельно в каждой вещи, и то, что содержит вещь, вот почему ничего не бывает без конца» (idem. In lib. X Met., lect. 5, 2028).

  • 4 MORS (DEATH, DECEASE, END)

    смерть. Августин различает две смерти: «первая, вследствие которой происходит разделение соединенных природ: Бога и души, или души и тела. Таким образом, о первой, телесной, смерти можно сказать, что она добра для добрых и зла для злых». Вторая смерть - смерть всего человека, она «бывает тогда, когда оставляет тело душа, оставленная Богом» и «ни для кого не бывает доброй, так как никто из добрых не подвергается ей» (Августин. О Граде Божием. Т. 2. С. 288-289).
