Isa. lxi. 1. “Since the Holy Scriptures frequently, in plain words, teach the equality of the Son with the Father, and the Son’s actual deeds likewise testify thereto, it is not permissible to call that truth in question on the strength of a single phrase, which we are compelled to make use of, in speaking of God, by reason of the limitations of human language. For in speaking of God, and the things of God, we make use of terms which we employ in treating of created natures, and which on that account convey the notion of imperfection which is found only in such natures.”—Hurter in loc.

Regard not, therefore, the narrow bounds of human language, but the plain meaning of the words, and believe facts accomplished. Bethink you that our Lord Jesus Christ said in Isaiah that He had been sent by the Spirit. Is the Son, therefore, less than the Spirit because He was sent by the Spirit? Thus you have the record, that the Son declares Himself sent by the Father and His Spirit. “I am the beginning,” He saith, “and I live for ever, and My hand hath laid the foundations of the earth, My right hand hath made the heaven to stand abidingly;” and further on: “I have spoken, and I have called; I have brought him, and have made his way to prosper. Draw ye near to Me, and hear these things: not in secret have I spoken from the beginning. When they were made, I was there: and now hath the Lord and His Spirit sent Me.” Here, indeed, He Who made the heaven and the earth Himself saith that He is sent by the Lord and His Spirit. Ye see, then, that the poverty of language takes not from the honour of His mission. He, then, is sent by the Father; by the Spirit also is He sent."],"source_library_url":"/library/0fa8950f93143420a2e5/#ws-library-full-note:0fa8950f93143420a2e5:cite_note-3","source_url":"https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Nicene_and_Post-Nicene_Fathers:_Series_II/Volume_X/Works/Exposition_of_the_Christian_Faith/Book_II/Chapter_9#cite_note-3","translation_credit_roles":["translator","assistant","assistant"],"translator":"Augustus Henry Eugene de Romestin, Eugene de Romestin (assistant), Henry Thomas Forbes Duckworth (assistant)","verification":{"proof_file":"raw/review/ambrose-library-note-batch-0069/proof-records.jsonl","proof_file_sha256":"15e5014e132749199fbb98a5325748a81e312f7399a7eb4ee121e22942a1252a","proof_record_id":"ws-library-full-note:0fa8950f93143420a2e5:cite_note-3"},"verified":true,"work":"Exposition of the Christian Faith","work_id":"ws-npnf2-10-ambrose-cbc1603815cf0c93c669"}
