Aquinas - "be renewed in the spirit of your minds"

One of the choices for today's first reading at the Office of Readings in the Divine Office (aka Liturgy of the Hours) is 2 Corinthians 4:16-5.10.

St Thomas Aquinas offers a particularly rich commentary on this section of 2 Corinthians, a portion of which (on verse 16 - though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed every day) I have posted at Enlarging the Heart.

The way in which Aquinas weaves a tapestry out of scriptural quotations in order to produce an exegesis which is both thoroughly Patristic and thoroughly Thomist provides good material for a lectio of the passage:

"Our old self was crucified with him" (Rom. 6:6);
"Rottenness enters into my bones" (Hab. 3:16);
"What is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away" (Heb. 8:13);
"Be renewed in the spirit of your minds" (Eph. 4:23);
"Your youth is renewed like the eagle's" (Ps. 103:5);
"Ascending in his heart" (Ps. 84:7, Vulgate).
