4380   3, 2   |                  Afterwards this word "nature" ~was taken to signify the
4381   3, 2   |       intrinsic principle, this ~word "nature" was further employed to

4384   3, 2   |                species ~is called the "nature." And thus Boethius defines

4391   3, 2   |               of a house; and thus one nature ~would not be constituted
4392   3, 2   |              First, because the Divine Nature is ~altogether immutable,
4393   3, 2   |           Christ ~would be of the same nature neither with His Father
4394   3, 2   |                hence, since the Divine Nature infinitely ~exceeds the

4412   3, 2   |                Further, Christ's human nature has no less dignity than

4422   3, 2   |          individual subsisting in this nature), because every individual ~
4423   3, 2   |            individual ~subsisting in a nature would be altogether one

4434   3, 2   |               not. Hence, if the human nature is not united to God the
4435   3, 2   |                as the Word has a human nature united to Him, which ~does
4436   3, 2   |               not belong to His Divine Nature, it follows that the union
4437   3, 2   |               the Word, and not in the nature.~Aquin.: SMT TP Q[2] A[2]
4438   3, 2   |           Reply OBJ 1: Although in God Nature and Person are not really
4439   3, 2   |         subsisting. And because human ~nature is united to the Word, so
4440   3, 2   |               it, and not so ~that His Nature receives therefrom any addition
4441   3, 2   |                that the union of human nature to the Word of God took
4442   3, 2   |                 person, and not in the nature.~Aquin.: SMT TP Q[2] A[2]
4443   3, 2   |               oneself. Hence the human nature of Christ ~has a greater
4444   3, 2   |              God "did not assume human nature in general, ~but 'in atomo'" -
4445   3, 2   |            substance, even in rational nature, is a person, but that alone ~
4446   3, 2   |        Therefore, although this ~human nature is a kind of individual
4447   3, 2   |               Within the limits of our nature He came, Who far ~surpasses
4448   3, 2   |           surpasses the whole order of nature supersubstantially." Now
4449   3, 2   |               hypostasis a determinate nature, viz. rational, according
4450   3, 2   |      individual substance ~of rational nature"; and hence it is the same
4451   3, 2   |                attribute to the human ~nature in Christ a proper hypostasis
4452   3, 2   |               whatever ~belongs to the nature in the concrete; for we
4453   3, 2   |           hypostasis, but diversity of nature. Hence Gregory Nazianzen
4454   3, 2   |                 So ~likewise the human nature in Christ, although it is
4455   3, 2   |                 but on ~account of its nature, which springs from its
4456   3, 2   |               species by reason of the nature assumed, and not by ~reason
4457   3, 2   |               in the Word, Person ~and Nature do not differ, as appears
4458   3, 2   |               1]. Therefore ~since the Nature of the Word is simple, as
4459   3, 2   |         requires parts. But the Divine Nature is ~incompatible with the
4460   3, 2   |             will not be a person but a nature; and hence the union in
4461   3, 2   |                will ~take place in the nature, which is contrary to A[
4462   3, 2   |        altogether simple, even as ~the Nature of the Word. Secondly, in
4463   3, 2   |                belongs to subsist in a nature; and thus the Person of
4464   3, 2   |              soul and body results the nature of ~the human species. But

4466   3, 2   |                 which ~subsists in the nature composed of them. And hence
4467   3, 2   |                  as referring to human nature, which, as it is in one
4468   3, 2   |         individual alone, ~has not the nature of a common species, but
4469   3, 2   |              God did not ~assume human nature as it exists in the pure
4470   3, 2   |           would not have assumed human nature in reality, ~unless it be
4471   3, 2   |           unless it be said that human nature is a separate idea, just
4472   3, 2   |               Son of God assumed human nature as it is ~in all the individuals
4473   3, 2   |              11) that He assumed human nature "in atomo," i.e. in an ~
4474   3, 2   |        suppositum or a ~person of that nature, but in the Person of the
4475   3, 2   |             not as referring to ~human nature, as if from the union of
4476   3, 2   |               soul and body one common nature ~(viz. human) did not result,
4477   3, 2   |        something that becomes a common nature, for in this way it would

4480   3, 2   |               quality. Therefore human nature is ~accidentally united
4481   3, 2   |             being corrupted. But human nature came to Christ ~in time,
4482   3, 2   |                does not pertain to the nature or the essence ~of a thing
4483   3, 2   |                an ~accident. But human nature does not pertain to the
4484   3, 2   |              to the Divine Essence or ~Nature of the Son of God, for the
4485   3, 2   |              did not take place in the nature, ~as was said above (A[1]).
4486   3, 2   |                 A[1]). Hence the human nature must have accrued ~accidentally
4487   3, 2   |            accidentally. But the human nature ~was the instrument of the

4490   3, 2   |               from the two natures one nature resulted, so ~that they
4491   3, 2   |            natures (the distinction of nature ~coming to an end after
