Lactantius, On The Anger Of God - Emotions In God - Sadler's Lectures
This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Christian rhetorician and philosopher's short treatise, On The Anger of God
Specifically it focuses on his discussions of what emotions (affectus) God would feel. He distinguishes between emotions it doesn't make sense to attribute to God, because they are associated with vice, and emotions that God should feel precisely because they are expressive of virtue.
