The next question concerns the mode of the emanation of things from the
First Principle, and this is called creation, and includes eight
points of inquiry:
(1) What is creation?
(2) Whether God can create anything?
(3) Whether creation is anything in the very nature of things?
(4) To what things it belongs to be created?
(5) Whether it belongs to God alone to create?
(6) Whether creation is common to the whole Trinity, or proper to
any one Person?
(7) Whether any trace of the Trinity is to be found in created
things?
(8) Whether the work of creation is mingled with the works of nature
and of the will?
