Referring to the current tasks of theology, John Paul [I affirmed the need to investigate the profound and genuine truth that biblical texts seek to communicate, which acquire their full significance in the perennial appraisal made throughout the centuries (Fides et Ratio, 941 This study aims to respond in part to this challenge. The methodology consists of an analysis of the entire work of St. Thomas and its corresponding bibliography. The exegetical theory of the senses of Sacred Scripture, widely used in the medieval period, presents characteristics and formulations of great interest to unveil the meaning of history. The literal sense and spiritual sense, in three significant dimensions - allegorical, moral and anagogical - convey a vision of' History centered on Christ and oriented towards the definitive future.
