This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The City of God.

It focuses specifically his discussion in book 11 bearing on the understanding of the Genesis passage "in the beginning, God created the heavens and earth", to which he provides a metaphysical interpretation.
