Heb. i. 3. ἀπαυγασμα
τῆς δόξης καὶ
χαρακτὴρ τῆς
ὑποστάσεως
αὐτοὑ. ᾽
ἱπόστασις
is rendered “person” in the A.V. The R.V. 1881
has “effulgence of His glory and very image of His
substance,” and in the margin “the impress of His
substance.” The Son does not reproduce the person of
the Father—otherwise there would be no distinction, but
confusion, of Persons, but He does reproduce or represent the
substance, or essence, of the Father—i.e., the
λόγος
τῆς οὐσίας is
the same for both Persons.
