Guest editor Rev. fr. Nicanor Pier Giorgio R. Austriaco, O.P., SThD, PhD said in his that the essays in this volume 鈥渃onfirm the intuition that the scholastic framework can help Filipinos better understand how they feel, how they choose, how they think, and how they act.鈥�

The articles published in the said issue are the following:

1. by Eugene Dominic Aboy, O.P. explores the relationship of pag-unawa, the Filipino notion of 鈥渦nderstanding鈥� with Aquinas鈥� discussion of the virtue of mercy.
2. Wilhelm Bo帽on, O.P. presents the dynamic interplay between the Filipino virtue of pakikis谩ma and Aquinas鈥� concept of charity within the context of friendship, i.e., amicitia, thus forging a compelling dialogue that uncovers the profound connection between these two virtues.
3. by Siddharta Chiong, O.P. uses the Thomistic virtue ethics framework to recast kagandahanglo贸b, which is the disposition to regard the other as a kapwa or shared-self, as a Filipino virtue. 
4. by Marc Adrian de la Pe帽a, O.P. studies “utang na lo贸b” in conversation with St. Thomas鈥� Aquinas鈥� notion of gratia/gratitudine, demonstrating how Aquinas’ notion of gratitude can elucidate ways to avoid the pitfalls of utang na lo贸b and distinguish circumstances where utang na lo贸b becomes either a virtue or vice.
5. by Vince Stanley B. I帽igo, O.P. explores pagpapakabayani in dialogue with the Thomistic account of virtuous anger.
6. by Ian Joeffrey G. Melendres, O.P. proposes that the virtue of paninindigan must play an integral part of any successful Filipino virtue ethics, aiming to discover that this virtue can fundamentally anchor the Filipino virtues in katotohanan, i.e, truth.

The articles published in the September – December 2023 issue are the following:

1. by Jeffrey Segovia tackles the understanding linked to the Valley of Hinnom as an allusion to the concept and image of eternal damnation, as well as uncovering the mystery of the silver scrolls of Ketef Hinnom, which is claimed to be one of the most important Biblical discoveries of antiquity.
2. by Leo-Martin Angelo Ruiz Ocampo investigates the experience of the School of Salamanca, how its core dynamic termed as the 鈥淪alamanca Process鈥� embodies the charism of the Dominican Order, and the ongoing attempt to recover it as a model for the life and mission of Dominicans today as expressed in official documents of the Order.
3. by Jos茅 Eugenio Borao Mateo is grounded on Spanish and Dutch documentary sources to provide a better understanding of the archaeological findings in the church, thus offering new perspectives on the archaeological conclusions by highlighting the distinction between two crucial elements: the convent and the church. In other words, the paper proposes the possibility that the final church, constructed with stone, may have remained unfinished, adding complication to the interpretation of the discovered cemetery in the same site.
4. by Allan A. Basas interrogates the presence of the notion of social responsibility in human being’s experiences, in recognition of the inviolability of the Other. Basas likewise urges the readers in a thematic discussion in the cusp of Levinas鈥� notion of social responsibility and Filipino sociality to show that responsibility is a universal value with many faces.
5. by Alexandre Coello de la Rosa tackles the figure of Don Diego V谩zquez de Mercado, the first secular archbishop of Manila, and brings the other aspects of his tenure, such as his relations with the cathedral chapter and his tense relations with the governor of the Philippines, Don Juan de Silva y Enr铆quez (1609-1616).
6. by Jorge Mojarro
7. by Joselito B. Zulueta revisits the launch of the two volumes of 鈥淒oing Philosophy in the Philippines: The Thomasian Collection鈥�, culled from the pages of UNITAS journal.

8. by Jose Adriand Emmanuel L. Layug talks about George Weigle’s service to the church and to all men of goodwill in search for the true meaning of Vatican II in his work “To Sanctify the World The Vital Legacy of Vatican II”.
9. by Melanie D. Turingan talks about the virtues exhibited by St. Joseph the Worker as God’s dutiful stalwart that provided Jesus a home together with the Virgin Mary, as well as how reader would take inspiration from his virtues.
10. by Blaise D. Ringor explored how Seifert synthesized the philosophies of thinkers like Dietrich von Hildebrand and Josef Pieper with the thoughts of Karol Wojtyla/John Paul II, concurrently offering a critical response to the work of scholars such as Josef Fuchs, Jonathan Harrison, and Franz B枚ckle. This allows the reader to engage and delve on the primary texts written by Karol Wojtyla/John Paul II.
11. by Marian Joanne Co-Pua, DCL celebrates how fr. Manlangit masterfully delivered his advocacy and its odyssey in tackling the core and essential concepts, principles, and issues in Bioethics.
