Abstract
This article argues that based on the Pythagorean numerical-musical cosmology, Augustine holds that order, as the immanent power of God, determines the eternal spectrum of beauty, goodness, and harmony in both the physical and metaphysical realms. The principle of harmonic motions of the universe, the principle of knowing the truth, and the principle of right living constitute the divine order of nature, logic, and ethics. In the three realms, nothing can be irrelevant to the inviolate numerical order, which is the essence of all creatures.
