Note 145 — CONCERNING INTELLECT.

Thus for instance intellect in being itself, which comprehends the highest order of intelligibles, is νοῦς νοητός, or an intelligible intellect; because it is the object of intelligence to all subordinate natures, and because its vision is transcendently simple and occult. But every intellect is indeed the same with the intelligible in its own nature, but is subordinate to intelligible itself.
