Of the Mode of Union on the Part of the Human Nature
We must now consider the union on the part of what was assumed. About which we must consider first what things were assumed by the Word of God; secondly, what were co-assumed, whether perfections or defects.Now the Son of God assumed human nature and its parts. Hence a threefold consideration arises. First, with regard to the nature; secondly, with regard to its parts; thirdly, with regard to the order of the assumption.Under the first head there are six points of inquiry:(1) Whether human nature was more capable of being assumed than any other nature?(2) Whether He assumed a person?(3) Whether He assumed a man?(4) Whether it was becoming that He should assume human nature abstracted from all individuals?(5) Whether it was becoming that He should assume human nature in all its individuals?(6) Whether it was becoming that He should assume human nature in any man begotten of the stock of Adam?
