Keywords:
Rapture, Gnosiology, Medieval Philosophy.Abstract
In this article, I aim to answer the following questions: (1) How canwe understand the fact that it is possible to have a vision of God on a higherplane if, naturally, the intellect can only have knowledge of that regardingwhich we have phantoms and sensitive images? (2) Can it be said that suchprocess is something violent or anti-natural, i.e. against the nature of intellect?
