DLORD 19, 22
The Lord in respect to the Divine Human is called the Son of God;
and respect the the Word, the Son of man.
He who knows what in the Lord is called "the Son of God,"
and what in Him is called "the Son of man,"
is able to see many of the secret things of the Word;
for at one time the Lord calls Himself "the Son,"
at another "the Son of God,"
and at another "the Son of man,"
everywhere according to the subject that is being treated of.
When His Divinity, His oneness with the Father,
His Divine power, faith in Him, life from Him,
are being treated of,
He calls Himself "the Son," and "the Son of God."
But where His passion, Judgment, His advent,
and, in general, redemption, salvation,
reformation, and regeneration, are treated of,
He calls Himself "the Son of man;"
the reason of which is
that He is then meant in respect to the Word.
