1 7 | infirmities of body and soul; but all the while, whilst 2 10| TEXTURE, ANIMALIS, COMPOSED OF SOUL.~I now turn to another class, 3 10| of Christ is composed of soul, that His soul became flesh, 4 10| composed of soul, that His soul became flesh, so that His 5 10| flesh, so that His flesh is soul; and as His flesh is of 6 10| and as His flesh is of soul, so is His soul of flesh. 7 10| flesh is of soul, so is His soul of flesh. But here, again, 8 10| If, in order to save the soul, Christ took a soul within 9 10| the soul, Christ took a soul within Himself, because 10 10| have made that flesh one of soul, as if He could not have 11 10| could not have saved the soul in any other way than by 12 10| secure salvation to that soul which He took Himself, when 13 10| the flesh, but only our soul, how absurd it is, in the 14 10| meaning to save only the soul, He yet made it into just 15 10| carried, He ought, in that soul which He carried to have 16 10| carried to have carried our soul, one (that is) of the same 17 10| is the condition of our soul in its secret nature, it 18 10| However, it was not our soul which He saved, if His own 19 10| if He did not save our soul on the ground, that it was 20 10| the ground, that it was a soul of flesh which He saved, 21 10| because He has not saved our soul. Nor indeed did it need 22 10| salvation, for it was not our soul really, since it was, on 23 10| was, on the supposition, a soul of flesh. But yet it is 24 10| was ours; for it was our soul that was saved, since that 25 10| conclude that as in Christ the soul was not of flesh, so neither 26 10| possibly been composed of soul.~ 27 11| EXPOSED. THAT IS CHRIST WITH A SOUL COMPOSED OF FLESH CORPOREAL, 28 11| THOUGH INVISIBLE. CHRIST'S SOUL, LIKE OURS, DISTINCT FROM 29 11| assuming a flesh composed of soul, should seem to have had 30 11| should seem to have had a soul that was made of flesh? 31 11| say, desired to make the soul visible to men, by enduing 32 11| it was born or not. The soul, therefore (they further 33 11| by means of the flesh the soul should demonstrate itself 34 11| it was requisite that the soul should exhibit itself in 35 11| previous position be that the soul is wholly invisible(inquiring 36 11| non-existent. If, then, the soul has an invisible body, He 37 11| since He has set forth the soul as being a different thing 38 11| what has been done to the soul, if it has been clothed 39 11| into flesh. But even if the soul is, on their hypothesis, 40 11| incorporeal, so that the soul, whatever it is, should 41 11| plan if He displayed the soul in some new sort of body, 42 11| adequate cause, a visible soul instead of an invisible 43 11| as a man exhibited even a soul of a thoroughly human condition, 44 12| THE TRUE FUNCTIONS OF THE SOUL. CHRIST ASSUMED IT IN HIS 45 12| let it be granted that the soul is made apparent by the 46 12| ourselves separate from our soul, when all that we are is 47 12| when all that we are is soul. Indeed, without the soul 48 12| soul. Indeed, without the soul we are nothing; there is 49 12| we are ignorant of the soul, it is in fact the soul 50 12| soul, it is in fact the soul that is ignorant of itself. 51 12| look into is, whether the soul was in this matter so ignorant 52 12| in any way it could. The soul, in my opinion, is sensual. 53 12| therefore, pertaining to the soul is unconnected with sense, 54 12| is unconnected with the soul. And if I may use the expression 55 12| sensus est" "Sense is the soul's very soul." Now, since 56 12| Sense is the soul's very soul." Now, since it is the soul 57 12| soul." Now, since it is the soul that imparts the faculty 58 12| the competence of every soul; it has, I mean, a practical 59 12| which knowledge of itself no soul could possibly have exercised 60 12| been furnished with such a soul as would make him the rational 61 12| rational. Now, how can that soul which makes man a rational 62 12| deprecations does not the soul use according as the man 63 12| On the Testimony of the Soul." Besides, if the soul was 64 12| the Soul." Besides, if the soul was ignorant of itself from 65 12| descend and take on Him a soul, not that the soul might 66 12| Him a soul, not that the soul might discover itself in 67 12| was manifested," not the soul. And again, "I am come to 68 12| I am come to save the soul. He did not say, "to explain" 69 12| know, of course, that the soul, although an invisible essence, 70 12| was no more composed of soul than his soul was of flesh. 71 12| composed of soul than his soul was of flesh. What further 72 12| of the structure of the soul which we were ignorant of 73 13| NATURE. THE FLESH AND THE SOUL BOTH FULLY AND UN-CONFUSEDLY 74 13| UN-CONFUSEDLY CONTAINED IN IT.~The soul became flesh that the soul 75 13| soul became flesh that the soul might become visible. Well, 76 13| the flesh likewise become soul that the flesh might be 77 13| might be manifested? If the soul is flesh, it is no longer 78 13| is flesh, it is no longer soul, but flesh. If the flesh 79 13| but flesh. If the flesh is soul, it is no longer flesh, 80 13| is no longer flesh, but soul. Where, then, there is flesh, 81 13| flesh, and where there is soul, it has become both one 82 13| we should understand the soul when we name the flesh, 83 13| and when we indicate the soul, explain ourselves as meaning 84 13| state. Therefore, also, the soul of Christ having become 85 13| inseparable property. And the soul is not an inseparable property. 86 13| it has become flesh, the soul is a uniform solid body; 87 13| But in Christ we find the soul and the flesh expressed 88 13| terms; that is to say, the soul is called soul, and the 89 13| say, the soul is called soul, and the flesh, flesh; nowhere 90 13| flesh, flesh; nowhere is the soul termed flesh, or the flesh, 91 13| termed flesh, or the flesh, soul; and yet they ought to have 92 13| properties of both, the soul by itself, and the flesh 93 13| the flesh by itself." "My soul," says He, "is exceeding 94 13| of the world. Now, if the soul had been flesh, there would 95 13| only been in Christ the soul composed of flesh, or else 96 13| else the flesh composed of soul. Since, however, He keeps 97 13| distinct, the flesh and the soul, He shows them to be two. 98 13| one; if not one, then the soul is not composed of flesh, 99 13| flesh, nor the flesh of soul. For the soul-flesh, or 100 13| indeed He even had some other soul apart from that which was 101 13| flesh besides that which was soul. But since He had but one 102 13| had but one flesh and one soul, that "soul which was sorrowful, 103 13| flesh and one soul, that "soul which was sorrowful, even 104 13| species of the flesh-comprised soul.~ 105 14| become man, with flesh and soul as the Son of man? As "the 106 15| flesh was not composed. of soul, nor of stellar substance, 107 17| out of it into a living soul. As, then, the first Adam 108 17| of death.
