Scholia on the incarnation of the Only-Begotten10

CCEL

Types of that Ineffable Union. 195

196 Ark overlaid within, the Soul, without, the Body.

Christ God by Nature: Godhead cannot be grasped by earth. 197

198 God the Word lowered Himself, not man raised himself.

He humbled, emptied Himself: is in His own glory with flesh. 199

200 Incarnate =born as we yet God. Two sets of

names are His. One, yet natures inconfused. 201

202 Jesus makes His own what belong to His Manhood.

Mercy-seat type of Emmanuel, God and Man. 203

204 Brazen serpent type of Incarnate Son:

on the Father's Throne with Body. Leprous hand. 205

206 Jesus Christ Incarnate Word: spake the Law,

spake to us. Made flesh = God made Man. 207

208 If Emmanuel God as God-dwelt, we too.

210 Christ the Great God: in Him our blessed Hope:

S. Paul preached, knows hearts, forgives, Co-sits. 211

212 Christ God: else indwelling and man-worship..

The Son made Man without change. 213

214 The Word has a second Birth, yet changes not.

The Word with His manhood One, in us an indwelling. 215

216 God fills all as He knows: sent, His Divine work for us.

The Son Eternal Offspring of the Father, Mary's Child. 217

218 B. V. bare God, not Godhead apart by Itself.

Soul not born of body, yet the two man: Christ God and man. 219

220 God the Son a Boy and saved us.
