DLord 35 [3, 9]
In His state of submission
He prayed to the Father
as though praying to another than Himself,
while in His state of glorification
He spoke with the Father
as though speaking with Himself.
In the latter state
He said that the Father was in Him and He in the Father,
and that He and the Father were one.
On the other hand, in His state of submission
He underwent temptations or trials, suffered the cross,
and prayed to the Father not to forsake Him.
For the Divine cannot be tempted or tested,
and still less suffer the cross.
Since the Lord glorified His humanity,
that is, made it Divine,
therefore after death
He rose on the third day with His whole body.
This does not happen in the case of any other person;
for a person rises only in respect to his spirit,
and not in respect to his body.
