What is Essence of Law According to St. Aquinas about?

St. Thomas Aquinas discusses the essence and necessity of law in his masterwork The Summa Theologica. He argues that law pertains to reason, is directed towards the common good of society, and must be made by a public personage and properly promulgated. Based on these principles, Aquinas concludes that law is an ordinance of reason established by authority that is necessary to achieve order and allow society to rationally attain its goals of happiness and bliss.
