THE INSTRUCTOR.
275
Spirit testifies by Esaias: "And we saw Him, and He had no form nor comeliness; but His form was mean, inferior to men."[1] Yet who was more admirable than the Lord? But it was not the beauty of the flesh visible to the eye, but the true beauty of both soul and body, which He exhibited, which in the former is beneficence; in the latter—that is, the flesh—immortality.
- ↑ Isa. liii. 2, 3.
