Воплощение (вочеловечение)
Machine translation from the original · Show original
Christ, seeing how soul-destroying sin consumes in a mortal body everything that He put into it from the heavenly portion, and how the cunning serpent dominates people, to restore His property, he did not leave other helpers to heal the disease, because weak healing is not enough in great suffering, but he exhausted the glory that He Himself had - the heavenly and unchanging Image of the Heavenly. Together, according to human and non-human laws, having incarnated in the pure womb of an unmarried wife (oh a miracle, incredible for the weakest!), He came to us, being together God and mortal, combining together two natures (of which one is hidden, and the other is visible to people, one is God, and the other was born for us at the end of the time when God united with him in the human womb) and in both natures being One God; because man united with the Divine and from the Divinity, man is the King and Christ. A new connection took place because I neglected the first one.
In the first, I was granted God’s breath, and in the last, Christ took upon Himself my soul and all my members, took on that Adam, initially free, who had not yet been clothed with sin until he recognized the serpent, and did not taste fruit and death, but fed the soul with simple, heavenly thoughts, and was the bright secret of God and the Divine. It was for this re-creation that God came into human nature, so that, having overcome and defeated the murderer by death, taking gall for food, nails for intemperance of hands, the Cross for wood, ascension to the Cross for earth, he would raise Adam back to life and glory. And having spread out the holy body according to the ends of the world, He gathered the human race from all ends, united it into one man and imprisoned it in the bosom of the great Divinity, with the Blood of the Lamb cleansing all impurities and removing the filth that blocked the path from earth to heaven for mortals (2).
The incarnation of Christ is a new creation of me, a man, because God in the flesh suffered through my suffering. He fully repaid all my debts; by mercy to Eve, He was born from a wife, but from a Virgin, for His first birth was from the One Father; and the unmarried came from the unmarried. And the census was in the image of God's subsequent inscription. Being wrapped in shrouds is a substitute for Adam's nakedness. Beating babies is the abolition of infantile prototypes. The walking star is the worship of the creature. The coming of the Magi is the entry of the pagans into the Church. The Baptism of Christ was the cleansing of the waters for me. Spirit is a witnessed kinship. Fasting is an anointing for the fight against the enemy. Temptation was a taste of God's cunning. The crown of thorns and the vestment in purple are the taking away of power from the enemy in open struggle. The cross is a sign of victory, and the wooden one is a sign of the tree. The nails are the nailing of my sin. With outstretched arms Christ embraces everything. And eating bile is the opposite of Adam’s eating.
One of the thieves was saved - this is Adam who believed; and the other was thin, although he was nailed to the cross. The darkness from the sixth hour is a cry for the suffering. And the disintegration of stones will destroy the stones. The resurrection of the dead and the entry into the city is the representation of the dead in the mountain. Blood and water flowing together from the rib is a double baptism of the font and suffering when the time of persecution brings danger. The deadness of Jesus is the destruction of the deadness in me. The Resurrection of Christ from the dead is my liberation from hell. The ascension of Christ to the mountain and I am lifted up by grief (2).
