502 40 |              the relations of parent and child, none so begets as
503 40 |            so begets as to be solely and without accessory, sufficient

506 40 |           existence from its parent, and none is so like its parent,
507 40 |     certainly the relation of parent and offspring can be ascribed
508 40 |             as to the supreme Spirit and his Word. Hence, it is his
509 40 |             to be most truly parent, and its to be most truly his

512 41 |          Spirit most truly to beget, and to his Word to be most truly
513 42 |             be most truly progenitor and Father, and of the other
514 42 |         truly progenitor and Father, and of the other to be the begotten
515 42 |             other to be the begotten and Son. ~I should certainly
516 42 |            should certainly be glad, and perhaps able, now to reach
517 42 |          fitting to call them Father and Son, than mother and daughter,
518 42 |          Father and Son, than mother and daughter, since in them
519 42 |            the one to be the Father, and of his offspring to be the
520 42 |            the one to be the mother, and the other the daughter,
521 42 |       daughter, since both are truth and wisdom (veritas et sapientia,
522 42 |             sex to be father or son, and to the inferior to be mother
523 42 |            to be mother or daughter? And this is certainly a natural
524 42 |              female is always larger and stronger, while the male
525 42 |            while the male is smaller and weaker.~At any rate, it
526 42 |          this reason, that the first and principal cause of offspring
527 42 |           other cause is associated, and which no other precedes.
528 42 |             one most truly to beget, and of the other to be begotten,
529 42 |            be most truly progenitor, and of the other to be most
530 42 |              be most truly begotten. And as the one is most truly
531 42 |            is most truly the parent, and the other his offspring,
532 42 |            one is most truly Father, and the other most truly Son.~ ~
533 43 |            common attributes of both and the individual properties
534 43 |              each. ~Now that so many and so important properties
535 43 |        interesting to reflect, again and again, upon so unfathomable
536 43 |       impossible that he who begets, and he who is begotten, are
537 43 |              begotten, are the same, and that parent and offspring
538 43 |            the same, and that parent and offspring are the same --
539 43 |           one must be the progenitor and the other the begotten,
540 43 |              the other the begotten, and one the Father, the other
541 43 |         necessary that he who begets and he who is begotten shall
542 43 |          begotten shall be the same, and also that parent and offspring
543 43 |           same, and also that parent and offspring shall be the same,
544 43 |              any other than the Son.~And although the one is one,
545 43 |             although the one is one, and the other another, so that
546 43 |               yet that which the one and the other are is in such
547 43 |             are is in such a way one and the same, that it is a most
548 43 |              a way is one the Father and the other the Son, that
549 43 |           that I have spoken of two; and yet so identical is that
550 43 |            is that which both Father and Son are, that I do not understand
551 43 |            perfectly supreme Spirit, and the Son separately is the
552 43 |             so are the Spirit-Father and the Spirit-Son one and the
553 43 | Spirit-Father and the Spirit-Son one and the same being, that the
554 43 |          same being, that the Father and the Son are not two spirits,
555 43 |             two sons, but one Father and one Son, since separate
556 43 |            Father, taken separately, and to the Son, taken separately,
557 43 |           that the one is the Father and the other the Son, that
558 43 |              nor the Son the Father; and they are so identical, by
559 43 |           Son is ever in the Father, and the essence of the Father
560 44 |           but the supreme simplicity and unity of their common nature
561 44 |        Father is essence of the Son, and the Son the essence of the
562 44 |         existent through the Father, and the Father through the Son,
563 44 |       supreme Essence is the Father, and the perfectly supreme Essence
564 44 |            Hence, the perfect Father and the perfect Son exist, each
565 44 |           the essence of the Father, and a wisdom born of the wisdom
566 44 |           not exist through himself, and were not wise through himself.~
567 44 |             the Son through himself, and his deriving existence from
568 44 |              the Father has essence, and wisdom, and life in himself;
569 44 |             has essence, and wisdom, and life in himself; so that
570 44 |           the possession of essence, and wisdom, and life in himself,
571 44 |              of essence, and wisdom, and life in himself, so that
572 44 |          extraneous essence, wisdom, and life, but through his own,
573 44 |           own, he subsists, is wise, and lives; otherwise, the existence
574 44 |              the existence of Father and Son will not be the same,
575 44 |             the Son through himself, and his deriving existence from
576 44 |           would derive its existence and the fact of its being from
577 44 |         essences, subsists, is wise, and lives through himself. Hence,
578 44 |             essence supremely simple and supremely one, it may consistently
579 44 |            may consistently be said, and conceived, that the one
580 44 |        between possessing an essence and being an essence, just as
581 45 |              the essence of the Son: and in like manner the Son is
582 45 |        wisdom, etc., of the Father. ~AND although, for reasons we

584 45 |            the virtue of the Father, and his wisdom, and justice,
585 45 |              Father, and his wisdom, and justice, and whatever is
586 45 |             his wisdom, and justice, and whatever is consistently
587 46 |          which may be thus expounded and conceived of, are apparently
588 46 |         cognition of that substance, and knowledge of it, and wisdom
589 46 |      substance, and knowledge of it, and wisdom regarding it; that
590 46 |             that is, it understands, and conceives of, the very essence
591 46 |          very essence of the Father, and cognises it, and knows it,

596 46 |        concerning him, and knowledge and cognition of him, and acquaintance
597 46 |      knowledge and cognition of him, and acquaintance with him; since
598 46 |            since the Son understands and conceives of the Father,
599 46 |           wise concerning him, knows and is acquainted with him,
600 47 |         intelligence of intelligence and the Truth of truth~BUT if
601 47 |              Father is intelligence, and knowledge, and wisdom, and
602 47 |         intelligence, and knowledge, and wisdom, and truth, it is
603 47 |           and knowledge, and wisdom, and truth, it is consequently
604 47 |             Son is the intelligence, and knowledge, and wisdom, and
605 47 |         intelligence, and knowledge, and wisdom, and truth, of the
606 47 |           and knowledge, and wisdom, and truth, of the paternal substance,

609 48 |            the memory of the Father, and the memory of memory, that
610 48 |            the wisdom of the Father, and the wisdom of wisdom, that
611 48 |            the wisdom of the Father; and the Son is indeed memory,

613 49 |            the individual properties and the common attributes of
614 49 |          common attributes of Father and Son, I find none in them
615 49 |             as he remembers himself, and conceives of himself! since
616 49 |              it can love both itself and him, because it can remember
617 49 |       because it can remember itself and him, and can conceive of
618 49 |             remember itself and him, and can conceive of itself and
619 49 |           and can conceive of itself and of him; for idle and almost
620 49 |          itself and of him; for idle and almost useless is the memory
621 49 |         almost useless is the memory and conception of any object,
622 49 |              as he remembers himself and conceives of himself.~ ~
623 50 |         proceeds equally from Father and Son. ~IT is, at any rate,
624 50 |         because he remembers himself and conceives of himself; and
625 50 |            and conceives of himself; and that he could not love himself
626 50 |       himself if he did not remember and conceive of himself. For
627 50 |        things are retained in memory and conceived of that are not
628 50 |             that he remember himself and conceives of himself (se
629 50 |            we understand the Father, and by his intelligence by which
630 50 |         proceeds equally from Father and Son.~ ~
631 51 |       CHAPTER LI.~Each loves himself and the other with equal love. ~
632 51 |               the Son loves himself, and the one the other; since
633 51 |    separately is the supreme Spirit, and the Son separately is the
634 51 |    separately is the supreme Spirit, and both at once one Spirit.
635 51 |             both at once one Spirit. And, since each equally remembers
636 51 |            equally remembers himself and the other, and conceives
637 51 |     remembers himself and the other, and conceives equally of himself
638 51 |         conceives equally of himself and the other; and since what
639 51 |            of himself and the other; and since what is loved, or
640 51 |       necessarily each loves himself and the other with an equal
641 52 |            common as it is to Father and Son! But, if he loves himself
642 52 |              as much as he remembers and conceives of himself; and,
643 52 |            and conceives of himself; and, moreover, remembers and
644 52 |             and, moreover, remembers and conceives of himself in
645 53 |             with the supreme Spirit, and yet it is itself with the
646 53 |            is itself with the Father and the Son one spirit. ~BUT,
647 53 |           supreme Spirit, the Father and the Son, ever existed; nevertheless,
648 53 |        existed; nevertheless, Father and Son would love themselves
649 53 |            Son would love themselves and one another.~It therefore
650 53 |            else than what the Father and the Son are, which is the
651 53 |           necessary than that Father and Son and the love of both
652 53 |             than that Father and Son and the love of both are one
653 53 |             Truth, the supreme Good, and whatsoever can be attributed
654 54 |             a whole from the Father, and as a whole from the Son,
655 54 |             as a whole from the Son, and yet does not exist except
656 54 |          whole from each separately, and likewise as a whole from
657 54 |            from that in which Father and Son are more than one, but
658 54 |              of plurality, do Father and Son equally produce so great
659 54 |    separately is the supreme Spirit, and the Son separately is the
660 54 |    separately is the supreme Spirit, and Father and Son at once are
661 54 |           supreme Spirit, and Father and Son at once are not two,
662 54 |          Spirit emanates as a whole, and from the Son as a whole,
663 54 |             from the Son as a whole, and at once from Father and
664 54 |              and at once from Father and Son, not as two, but as
665 54 |               not as two, but as one and the same whole.~ ~
666 55 |            being equally from Father and Son, and is so like both
667 55 |         equally from Father and Son, and is so like both that it
668 55 |     conceived to proceed from Father and Son, it does not at once
669 55 |     altogether identical with Father and Son.~Therefore, if it is
670 55 |            one of them is its father and the other its mother, or
671 55 |              the relations of Father and Son to it to be described
672 55 |         Hence, both, that is, Father and Son, are not father and
673 55 |              and Son, are not father and mother of the love emanating
674 56 |               Only the Father begets and is unbegotten; only the
675 56 |              the most true offspring and most true Son, while it
676 56 |           should, be called begetter and unbegotten, whose is the
677 56 |             since he alone is Father and parent, and in no wise derives
678 56 |          alone is Father and parent, and in no wise derives existence
679 56 |              existence from another; and the Word alone should be
680 56 |         begotten, which alone is Son and offspring. But only the
681 56 |          neither son nor off spring, and yet does in some sort derive
682 57 |               This love is uncreated and creator, as are Father and
683 57 |           and creator, as are Father and Son; and yet it is with
684 57 |               as are Father and Son; and yet it is with them not
685 57 |             three, but one uncreated and creative being. And it may
686 57 |        uncreated and creative being. And it may be called the Spirit
687 57 |          called the Spirit of Father and Son. ~BUT, since this love
688 57 |         supreme Being, as are Father and Son, and yet at once Father
689 57 |               as are Father and Son, and yet at once Father and Son,
690 57 |               and yet at once Father and Son, and the love of both
691 57 |              at once Father and Son, and the love of both are not
692 57 |           alone was created by none, and created all things through
693 57 |            as the Father separately, and the Son separately, are
694 57 |       separately, are each uncreated and creator, so, too, love separately
695 57 |              separately is uncreated and creator, and yet all three
696 57 |            is uncreated and creator, and yet all three at once are
697 57 |          than one, but one uncreated and creative being.~None, therefore,
698 57 |        create, the Son; while Father and Son alike do not create
699 57 |    essentially spirit, as are Father and Son, they are not regarded
700 57 |            it mysteriously proceeds.~And this love, too, it seems,
701 57 |              of being between Father and Son, may, not unreasonably,
702 57 |            which is common to Father and Son; if there is any exigency
703 57 |             a name proper to itself. And, indeed, if this love is
704 57 |         equally describes the Father and the Son: it will be useful
705 57 |             is identical with Father and Son, although it has its
706 58 |            the Spirit is the essence and wisdom etc. of Father and
707 58 |            and wisdom etc. of Father and Son. ~ALSO, just as the
708 58 |             the Son is the substance and wisdom and virtue of the
709 58 |             the substance and wisdom and virtue of the Father, in
710 58 |              he has the same essence and wisdom and virtue with the
711 58 |              same essence and wisdom and virtue with the Father;
712 58 |           wisdom or virtue of Father and Son, since it has altogether
713 58 |            the same essence, wisdom, and virtue with these.~ ~

752 61 |            not three, but one Father and one Son and one Spirit. ~
753 61 |           but one Father and one Son and one Spirit. ~AND here I
754 61 |             one Son and one Spirit. ~AND here I see a question arises.
755 61 |           the Father is intelligence and love as well as memory,
756 61 |              love as well as memory, and the Son is memory and love
757 61 |        memory, and the Son is memory and love as well as intelligence,
758 61 |             as well as intelligence, and the Spirit is no less memory
759 61 |             Spirit is no less memory and intelligence than love;
760 61 |              the Father is not a Son and a Spirit of some being?
761 61 |              a Spirit of some being? and why is not the Son the Father
762 61 |            is not the Son the Father and the Spirit of some being?
763 61 |            the Spirit of some being? and why is not this Spirit the
764 61 |            the Father of some being, and the Son of some being? For
765 61 |        memory, the Son intelligence, and the Spirit love.~But this
766 61 |            though he is intelligence and love, is not for that reason
767 61 |             he is only the begetter, and is he from whom the other
768 61 |           his own power he remembers and loves, is not, for that
769 61 |              has he is only begotten and is he from whom the Spirit
770 61 |               because his own memory and intelligence are sufficient
771 61 |         Father, one Son, one Spirit, and not three Fathers or Sons
772 62 |              doubted that the Father and the Son and their Spirit
773 62 |          that the Father and the Son and their Spirit each expresses
774 62 |        Spirit each expresses himself and the other two, just as each
775 62 |           just as each conceives of, and understands, himself and
776 62 |             and understands, himself and the other two. But, if this
777 62 |         there are expressive beings, and as many words as there are
778 62 |            the supreme Being, Father and Son and their Spirit are
779 62 |        supreme Being, Father and Son and their Spirit are always
780 62 |            is it, then, that the Son and the Spirit of the Son and
781 62 |            and the Spirit of the Son and of the Father beget nothing,
782 62 |          begotten of this substance, and so many spirits proceeding
783 63 |           Father, that is, one Word, and that from the Father alone. ~
784 63 |         Being, not only many fathers and sons and beings proceeding
785 63 |           only many fathers and sons and beings proceeding from it,
786 63 |              as well; or else Father and Son and their Spirit, of
787 63 |               or else Father and Son and their Spirit, of whom it
788 63 |           each one expresses himself and the other two.~For, just
789 63 |           the supreme Wisdom to know and conceive, so it is assuredly
790 63 |         assuredly natural to eternal and immutable knowledge and
791 63 |              and immutable knowledge and intelligence ever to regard
792 63 |             as present what it knows and conceives of. For, to such
793 63 |            supreme Spirit expressing and beholding through conception,
794 63 |             the nature of the Father and the Son and their Spirit
795 63 |            of the Father and the Son and their Spirit taken separately;
796 63 |             Spirit taken separately; and that, nevertheless, this,
797 63 |        established that as knowledge and intelligence are attributes
798 63 |            his being, so his knowing and conceiving is nothing else
799 63 |             as present what he knows and conceives of. Necessarily,
800 63 |            as the Father separately, and the Son separately, and
801 63 |              and the Son separately, and their Spirit separately,
802 63 |             separately, is a knowing and conceiving being, and yet
803 63 |        knowing and conceiving being, and yet the three at once are
804 63 |            once are not more knowing and conceiving beings than one,
805 63 |            than one, but one knowing and one conceiving being: so,
806 63 |            separately is expressive, and yet there are not three
807 63 |              then, that Being is one and only one, then what is expressed
808 63 |             what is expressed is one and only one; therefore, if
809 63 |      therefore, if it is in them one and only one which expresses,
810 63 |            only one which expresses, and one which is expressed --
811 63 |           one wisdom which expresses and one substance which is expressed --
812 63 |           each one expresses himself and all express one another,
813 63 |             be called his true image and his Son.~And in this truth
814 63 |              true image and his Son.~And in this truth I find a strange
815 63 |          this truth I find a strange and inexplicable factor. For
816 63 |            each one, that is, Father and Son, and the Spirit of Father
817 63 |             that is, Father and Son, and the Spirit of Father and
818 63 |             and the Spirit of Father and Son equally expresses himself
819 63 |            equally expresses himself and both the others, and that
820 63 |         himself and both the others, and that there is one Word alone
821 63 |          proved that it is the image and Son of him whose Word it
822 63 |             of him whose Word it is. And it is plain that it cannot
823 63 |            itself, because imitation and likeness are impossible
824 63 |             existence by generation, and after whose complete likeness
825 63 |            exists.~One Father, then, and not more than one Father;
826 63 |            than one Father; one Son, and not more than one Son; one
827 63 |         Spirit proceeding from them, and not more than one such Spirit,
828 63 |          exist in the supreme Being. And, although there are three,
829 63 |             nor the Spirit of Father and Son ever the Father or the
830 63 |          ever the Father or the Son; and each separately is so perfect
831 63 |             three are taken at once. And though each one expresses
832 63 |           each one expresses himself and all express one another,
833 63 |             words than one, but one; and this Word corresponds not
834 64 |              of the human intellect. And for that reason I think
835 64 |            be such by cogent proofs, and without the contradiction
836 64 |           shall explain how it knows and expresses itself, of which
837 64 |        Wisdom that the Father begets and the Son is begotten, who
838 65 |             in terms of Father, Son, and emanating Spirit be valid?
839 65 |       explained to a certain extent, and therefore nothing would
840 65 |            supreme Being is so above and beyond every other nature
841 65 |        thought of, except the common and familiar sense? If, then,
842 65 |             incomprehensible object, and in some sort has nothing
843 65 |            when we speak in riddles. And often we see a thing, not
844 65 |             upon a face in a mirror. And in this way, we often express
845 65 |           this way, we often express and yet do not express, see
846 65 |              yet do not express, see and yet do not see, one and
847 65 |              and yet do not see, one and the same object; we express
848 65 |              same object; we express and see it through another;
849 65 |       another; we do not express it, and do not see it by virtue
850 65 |       concerning the supreme Nature, and yet this Nature itself remains
851 65 |            were created from nothing and are preserved from nothingness;
852 65 |             is far above all things, and through its peculiar natural
853 65 |         words or by any other means; and, at the same time, an inference
854 66 |           approach to supreme Truth; and through its more excellent
855 66 |             knowledge of that Being; and the more carelessly it contemplates
856 67 |            mind itself is the mirror and image of that Being. ~THEREFORE,
857 67 |            is capable of remembering and conceiving of and loving
858 67 |        remembering and conceiving of and loving itself, I do not
859 67 |            which, through its memory and intelligence and love, is
860 67 |              memory and intelligence and love, is united in an ineffable
861 67 |          remembering, conceiving of, and loving, that Being. For,
862 67 |              Being. For, the greater and the more like that Being
863 67 |          with any power so excellent and so like the supreme Wisdom
864 67 |           this power of remembering, and conceiving of, and loving,
865 67 |      remembering, and conceiving of, and loving, the best and greatest
866 67 |             of, and loving, the best and greatest of all beings.
867 68 |              as that of remembering, and conceiving of, and loving,
868 68 |      remembering, and conceiving of, and loving, the supreme good,
869 68 |            altogether useless to it, and superfluous, unless what
870 68 |              is good through itself, and nothing else is good except
871 68 |        devoted itself to remembering and conceiving of it. It is
872 68 |             devote its whole ability and will to remembering, and
873 68 |             and will to remembering, and conceiving of, and loving,
874 68 |      remembering, and conceiving of, and loving, the supreme good,
875 69 |      supremely good, supremely wise, and omnipotent Creator, that
876 69 |          long as it truly loves him; and that what he voluntarily
877 69 |           him, who is supremely good and omnipotent, forever lives
878 69 |             secure from death itself and from every other trouble.~
879 70 |             that he who is most just and most powerful makes no return
880 70 |         between the soul that loves, and the soul that despises what
881 70 |            recompense given to love? And if the sustainer of love
882 70 |              to the being that loves and desires it, except itself?
883 70 |             if it wishes to be loved and desired, so as to make some
884 70 |          love, it wishes to be loved and desired, not for its own
885 70 |             for the sake of another; and does not wish to be loved
886 70 |              sees as through a glass and in a riddle, it may then
887 71 |           when in the greatest guilt and when without all guilt;
888 71 |              when without all guilt; and the supremely wise Justice
889 71 |           what is capable of no good and wills no evil, and what
890 71 |              good and wills no evil, and what is capable of the greatest
891 71 |         capable of the greatest good and wills the greatest evil.~
892 71 |         nothing can be more logical, and nothing ought to be believed
893 71 |           suffer eternal punishment; and as the former shall feel
894 72 |              human soul is immortal. And it is either forever miserable,
895 73 |        deprived of the supreme good, and every effort must be directed
896 73 |            to enjoy it at some time, and which as so scorning it,
897 73 |          stand in need of it; or how and on what ground those which
898 73 |      deprived by the supremely great and supremely good Creator of
899 73 |           most assuredly to believe. And toward this good every man
900 73 |           ought to strive, by loving and desiring it with all his
901 73 |      desiring it with all his heart, and all his soul, and all his
902 73 |             heart, and all his soul, and all his mind.~ ~
903 75 |            believe the supreme Being and those things without which
904 75 |           soul may reach out for it. And this truth can be more briefly
905 75 |            truth can be more briefly and fitly indicated, I think,
906 75 |       strives for the supreme Being, and that he believes those things
907 75 |              does not believe in it. And, perhaps, it is indifferent
908 75 |           believing to strive for it and toward it are the same,
909 75 |              without, but within it. And this is indicated more distinctly
910 75 |            indicated more distinctly and familiarly if we say, "striving
911 76 |             should believe in Father and Son and in their Spirit
912 76 |            believe in Father and Son and in their Spirit equally,
913 76 |             in their Spirit equally, and in each separately, and
914 76 |              and in each separately, and in the three at once. ~WE
915 76 |          then, equally in the Father and in the Son and in their
916 76 |            the Father and in the Son and in their Spirit, and in
917 76 |             Son and in their Spirit, and in each separately, and
918 76 |              and in each separately, and in the three at once, since
919 76 |         since the Father separately, and the Son separately, and
920 76 |              and the Son separately, and their Spirit separately
921 76 |     separately is the supreme Being, and at once Father and Son with
922 76 |            Being, and at once Father and Son with their Spirit are
923 76 |            with their Spirit are one and the same supreme Being,
924 76 |           end which in every thought and act he ought to strive for.
925 77 |              LXXVII.~What is living, and what dead faith. ~HENCE,
926 77 |            the faith will be useless and, as it were, dead, unless
927 77 |            dead, unless it is strong and living through love. For,
928 77 |          which it could not operate; and that idle faith is not living,
929 77 |              who ought to have sight and has it not, why cannot,
930 78 |          some sort be called Three. ~AND so it is evidently expedient
931 78 |              ineffable trinal unity, and in one Trinity; one and
932 78 |              and in one Trinity; one and a unity because of its one
933 78 |              one essence, but trinal and a trinity because of its
934 78 |            Trinity because of Father and Son and the Spirit of both,
935 78 |            because of Father and Son and the Spirit of both, who
936 78 |             say that they are Father and Son and the Spirit of both,
937 78 |              they are Father and Son and the Spirit of both, unless
938 78 |            is one essence or nature, and three persons or substances.~
939 78 |         individual, rational nature; and the word substance is ordinarily
940 78 |           are subject to, accidents, and for this reason they more
941 78 |              necessity, that supreme and one Trinity or trinal unity
942 78 |         justly be called one Essence and three Persons or three Substances.~ ~
943 79 |            is God, who alone is lord and ruler of all. ~IT appears,
944 79 |           called God is not nothing; and that to this supreme Essence
945 79 |              nature that is not God, and that he is to be worshipped
946 79 |              his preeminent majesty, and to be appeased for man's
947 79 |         accordance with its majesty, and what should be so appeased
948 79 |        object, as the supremely good and supremely powerful Spirit,
949 79 |           Spirit, who is Lord of all and who rules all? For, as it
950 79 |             through the supreme Good and its supremely wise omnipotence
951 79 |              all things were created and live, it is most inconsistent
952 79 |            well with every creature, and without whom it is well
953 79 |           whom it is well with none, and from whom, and through whom,
954 79 |            with none, and from whom, and through whom, and in whom,
955 79 |              whom, and through whom, and in whom, are all things.~
956 79 |              the most powerful lord, and most wise ruler of all;
957 79 |            ought to worship in love, and to love in worship; from
958 79 |            only God, ineffably Three and One.~
