“If the Son lives on account of διά. Vide note
referred to. the Father, He lives on account of another,
and not of Himself. But He who lives on account of another cannot
be Self-life. Or underived
life. αὐτοζωή. So He who is
holy of grace is not holy of himself. αὐτοάγιος. Then the
Son did not speak truly when He said, ‘I am the
life,’ John xi. 25. and again ‘the
Son quickeneth whom He will.’ John v. 21. We must
therefore understand the words to be spoken in reference to the
incarnation, and not to the Godhead.”
