As
the slayer of mankind raised himself against us with envy and hatred, so the
Source of life was lifted up [on the Cross] because of His immeasurable
goodness and love for mankind. He intensely desired the salvation of His
creature, i.e., that His creature would be restored by Himself. In contrast
to this, the author of evil wanted to bring God’s creature to ruin, and
thereby put mankind under his own power, and tyrannically to afflict us. And
just as he achieved the conquest and the fall of mankind by means of
injustice and cunning, by deceit and his trickery, so has the Liberator
brought about the defeat of the author of evil, and the restoration of His
own creature with truth, justice and wisdom. It was a deed of perfect justice
that our nature, which was voluntarily enslaved and struck down, should again
enter the struggle for victory and cast off its
|
voluntary
enslavement. Therefore, God deigned to receive our nature from us,
hypostatically uniting with it in a marvelous way. But it was impossible to
unite that Most High Nature, Whose purity is incomprehensible for human
reason, to a sinful nature before it had been purified. Therefore, for the
conception and birth of the Bestower of purity, a perfectly spotless and Most
Pure Virgin was required. God is born of the spotless and Holy Virgin, or
better to say, of the Most Pure and All-Holy Virgin. She is above every
fleshly defilement, and even above every impure thought. Her conceiving
resulted not from fleshly lust, but by the overshadowing of the Most Holy
Spirit. God marked this ever-virgin Daughter now praised by us, from before
the ages, and from eternity, choosing Her from out of His elect. ST GREGORY PALAMAS (1296-1357), On Eisodia
