[* Cf. FP, Q [12]]

In the next place we must consider matters concerning the blessed after the general judgment. We shall consider: (1) Their vision of the Divine essence, wherein their bliss consists chiefly; (2) Their bliss and their mansions; (3) Their relations with the damned; (4) Their gifts, which are contained in their bliss; (5) The crowns which perfect and adorn their happiness.

Under the first head there are three points of inquiry:

A1 Whether the saints will see God in His essence?

A2 Whether they will see Him with the eyes of the body?

A3 Whether in seeing God they will see all that God sees?
