The Season of the Church
The Holy Nativity Fast
Nov 25, 2009 - Jan 6, 2010
Hathor 16 - Kioakh 28, 1726
"We preach not one advent only of Christ, but a second also, far more
glorious than the former. For the former gave a view of His patience;
but the latter brings with it the crown of a divine kingdom. For all
things, for the most part, are twofold in our Lord Jesus Christ: a
twofold generation; one, of God, before the ages; and one, of a Virgin,
at the close of the ages: His descents twofold; one, the unobserved,
like rain on a fleece; and a second His open coming, which is to be. In
His former advent, He was wrapped in swaddling clothes in the manger;
in His second, He covereth Himself with light as with a garment In His
first coming, He endured the Cross, despising shame; in His second, He
comes attended by a host of Angels, receiving glory. We rest not then
upon His first advent only, but look also for His second. " St. Cyril of Alexandria on the Incarnation

 Unless the Son was God by Nature, He would not have been called, "God With Us,"which took place when He was born through a woman, assuming likeness with us. Not at all of an angel or of any other generate being is the word, Emmanuel, the invention but the Father thus named the Son. And the holy prophet will be our witness, saying of the Divine Offspring, "And they shall call His name that new Name which the Lord shall give Him" [IS. 62:2]. For a new name verily to the Son is Emmanuel, that is, "God with us." For before His Presence in the world with flesh, He was and was called merely God; after the Birth from the Virgin, no longer merely God, but, with us, i.e. Godmade man. Since therefore the Father calls His own Son God, let them blush who impiousl and unlearnedly say that He was made. For what is by Nature God, is not a creature.

المسيح ولد فمجدوه. المسيح أتى من السماوات فاستقبلوه. المسيح على الأرض فارفعوه. رتّلي للرب أيتها الأرض كلّها ويا شعوب سبّحوه بابتهاج لأنه قد تمجد.
المسيح في الجسد فابتهجوا: "يا جميع الأمم صفقوا بأكفكم وهللوا لله بصوت الترنم" (مزمور46: 1) "لأنه ولد لنا ولد، وأُعطينا ابناً، وتكون الرئاسة فوق منكبه ويدعى اسمه عجيباً مشيراً إلها جباراً أبا الأبد رئيس السلام" (أشعياء9: 6). به يبتدئ الكيان ويخلق غير المخلوق. فيا لها من محبة للبشر لا توصف يظهرها السيد. إن المولود منذ الأزل بلا أم يولد ثانية بلا أب. إن ابن الله يصير ابن البشر من أجلنا، نحن الساقطين من السعادة بسبب الخطيئة ليعيدنا إلى الحالة الأولى بواسطة تجسده. فالغني يفتقر إلى جسدي لأغنى أنا بألوهيته، والكامل يضعف في المجد لأشاركه في كماله. فيا له من سر لا يوصف.
