The answer is this. The Lord did not come to make a display. He came to heal and to teach suffering men. For one who wanted to make a display the thing would have been just to appear and dazzle the beholders. But for Him Who came to heal and to teach the way was not merely to dwell here, but to put Himself at the disposal of those who needed Him, and to be manifested according as they could bear it, not vitiating the value of the Divine appearing by exceeding their capacity to receive it.
ولأنه صالحٌ[109]، بل وصلاحه فائق، فقد خَلَق بكلمته الذاتي[110]- مخلِّصِنا يسوع المسيح- الجنسَ البشريَّ على حسب صورته الذاتية، خلقه كشبهه حتى يستطيع أن يُدرك ويعرف الموجودات، وأعطاه الإمكانية أن يُدرك ويعرف معنى أزليَّة الله حتى أنه إن احتفظ بهبة أنه مخلوق كشبه الله[111] لا يبتعد بالمرَّة عن تصوُّره الصحيح عن الله أو أن يهجر شركة الحياة مع القديسين. بل إذ لديه النعمة الموهوبة له، وعنده القوَّة الذَّاتية لكلمة الله يستطيع أن يبتهج ويكون له حوار مع الله ويحيا حياةَ الخلود بغير ألم في سعادة [112]حقيقية. وإذ لا يوجد ما يعوق[113] معرفته عن ما هو إلهي فإنه يرى باستمرار- من خلال نقاوة قلبه[114] - صورة الآب أي كلمة الله الذي خُلِق هو نفسه على صورته[115]، ويدهش عندما يتأمل في عناية كلمة الله بالعالم[116]
