 | | Peter Lombard, a theologian from the twelfth century, was born at Novara (or perhaps Lumello), in Italy, c. |
 | | Lombard, depending upon the works of Ambrose, Augustine and Hillary of Poitiers, cites scriptural evidence from both the Old Testament and the New Testament in support of the church's teaching on the Trinity. |
 | | In chapter three, quoting from Ambrose, Lombard says that the manner of the eternal, not the temporal generation of the Son from the Father is unknown to human intelligence, and in chapter 4, argues that the generation of the Son always is and is not to be understood as having occurred in the past. |
