Bede : And My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. By which covenant it is surely signified that I will clothe your flesh and soul together with perpetual renewal and immortality. — Commentary on Genesis (Hexaemeron) Cyril of Alexandria : God's covenant is "in the flesh" of the person who "does not fight on the terms of the flesh" and who "always carries about in his body the death of Jesus." — CATENA ON Genesis 3.1027
