  2    III|       Himself in the likeness of man. Now who, when he sees a

  4    III|        because they saw Him as a man, that was their concern. [
  5    III|       truly clothed Himself with man's nature, He would have
  6    III|         God was truly changed to man in such wise as to be born
  7    III|        moreover, wrestled with a man so strenuously with his
  8    III|      assumption of the nature of man? Or else, did those angels
  9     IV|        rate, has loved even that man who was condensed in his
 10     IV|         uncleannesses, even that man who was brought into life
 11     IV|         the said womb, even that man who was nursed amidst the
 12     IV|      another. Well, then, loving man He loved his nativity also,
 13     IV|  nativity, and then show us your man; or else withdraw the flesh,
 14     IV|  conditions which constitute the man whom God has redeemed. And
 15     IV|      that Christ really became a man.~
 16      V|        Christ, because Christ is man and the Son of man. [6] 
 17      V|     Christ is man and the Son of man. [6] Else why is Christ
 18      V|            6] Else why is Christ man and the Son of man, if he
 19      V|        Christ man and the Son of man, if he has nothing of man,
 20      V|        man, if he has nothing of man, and nothing from man? Unless
 21      V|         of man, and nothing from man? Unless it be either that
 22      V|         Unless it be either that man is anything else than flesh,
 23      V|     anything else than flesh, or man's flesh comes from any other
 24      V|       from any other source than man, or Mary is anything else
 25      V|        human being, or Marcion's man is as Marcion's god. Otherwise
 26      V|        not be described as being man without flesh, nor the Son
 27      V|    without flesh, nor the Son of man without any human parent;
 28      V|      substances displayed Him as man and God, ---- in one respect
 29      V| sufferings attested the flesh of man. [8] If His powers were
 30      V|  mountebanks, not as God besides man, but simply as a man, a
 31      V|     besides man, but simply as a man, a magician; not as the
 32     VI|         Marcion to Apelles. This man having first fallen from
 33     VI|       been food for the people: "Man," says the Psalmist, "did
 34     VI|        One who was to be truly a man, even unto death, it was
 35   VIII|        so many words: "The first man is of the earth, earthy;
 36   VIII|        earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven."
 37   VIII|        of the flesh of the first man, Adam, the "heavenly" substance
 38   VIII|         the spirit of the second man, Christ. And so entirely
 39   VIII|      passage refer the celestial man to the spirit and not to
 40     IX|          for He was looked on as man, for no other reason whatever
 41     IX|         corporeal substance of a man. Or else, show us some celestial

 52    XIV|        Him to take human nature. Man's salvation was the motive,
 53    XIV|         that which had perished. Man had perished; his recovery

 55    XIV|       competent alone to deliver man, whom a solitary and single
 56    XIV|         object indeed to deliver man by an angel? Why, then,
 57    XIV|      ordained the restoration of man. But He is not on this account
 58    XIV|        the angels, having become man, with flesh and soul as
 59    XIV|     flesh and soul as the Son of man? As "the Spirit of God."

 61     XV|       human, and was not born of man, I do not see of what substance
 62     XV|     spoke when He called Himself man and the Son of man, saying: "
 63     XV|       Himself man and the Son of man, saying: "But now ye seek
 64     XV|        now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth; "

 68     XV|           He came) as the Son of man." The Apostle Paul likewise
 69     XV|         Paul likewise says: "The man Christ Jesus is the one
 70     XV|         Mediator between God and man." Also Peter, in the Acts
 71     XV|       says), "Jesus Christ was a man approved of God among you." [
 72     XV|         human flesh derived from man, and not spiritual, and
 73     XV|          God, but of the will of man. Why, moreover, should it
 74     XV|   declares Himself to be, "not a man, but a worm; " who also
 75     XV|    despised more than all men, a man in suffering, and acquainted
 76    XVI|          as that whose nature in man is sinful. In the flesh,

 80  XXVII|           the Lord being born as man by a dispensation in which
 81  XXVII|         as we are told, God made man out of it into a living

 87 XXVIII|    assume flesh, of the flesh of man without the seed of a man;
 88 XXVIII|        man without the seed of a man; for the seed of a man was
 89 XXVIII|         a man; for the seed of a man was unnecessary for One
