Anyone who has gone through the preparation for Confirmation has likely studied the list of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit at some point. But most of us would struggle to define the gifts, especially those that sound similar, such as wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. The great 17th-century Thomistic commentator, St. John of St. Thomas, expounded on the gifts of the Holy Spirit not only with technical precision but also with spiritual insight and passion. When John was unavailable for a podcast interview, he sent one of his Dominican brothers, Father Cajetan Cadi, to explain his insights to us laypeople.
