According to Thomas Aquinas, a miracle had to surpass the whole of the created nature, which meant the visible and corporeal, as well as the invisible and incorporeal nature. Prospero Lambertini (1675–1758), the future Pope Benedict XIV, when he was promoter of the faith, noticed that it was impossible to distinguish a cure that occurred beyond the boundaries of incorporeal and invisible nature (the whole nature) from one that exceeded just corporeal and visible nature. The issue was of utmost importance since it risked delegitimizing the whole system of miracle verification. Consequently, Lambertini, in the fourth book of his magnum opus De servorum Dei beatificatione et beatorum canonizatione (On the Beatification of the Servants of God and the Canonization of the Blessed, 1734–1738), developed a new classification of miracles, which included the works of angels, with the aim of solving the problem. Furthermore, to counteract Spinoza's denial of miracles, he claimed that miracles were not contrary to the laws of nature.

修正超自然：Prospero Lambertini 对奇迹概念的重新思​​考

根据托马斯·阿奎那的说法，奇迹必须超越整个受造的自然，这意味着有形的和有形的，以及无形的和无形的自然。Prospero Lambertini (1675–1758)，未来的教皇本尼迪克特十四世 (Pope Benedict XIV)，当时他是该信仰的倡导者，他注意到无法区分发生在无形和无形自然（整个自然）边界之外的治疗与超越只是有形的和可见的自然。这个问题非常重要，因为它冒着使整个奇迹验证系统失去合法性的风险。因此，兰贝蒂尼在他的巨著的第四本书中Deservum Dei beaificatione et beatorum canonizatione（关于上帝仆人的真福品化和受祝福者的圣典化，1734-1738），开发了一种新的奇迹分类，其中包括天使的作品，旨在解决问题。此外，为了反驳斯宾诺莎对奇迹的否认，他声称奇迹并不违反自然法则。
