How Does Augustine Make Sense of Scripture?
For Augustine, the will is a highly complex phenomenon whose workings and key features very drastically in different contexts.

In this sense, Augustine's conception of will is not only inherently theological, it is inherently biblical. It does not make sense apart from the story of God's relationship to humans as recorded in scripture.
