And, behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS.
All Commentaries on Luke 1:31 Go To Luke 1
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
It may perhaps in the first instance of reflection, appear shocking to our ideas, that a God should dwell in a human body; but does not the sun emit its rays into all kinds of places, without any detriment to its purity? How much more would the Sun of justice, assuming a most pure body, formed of the purest blood of the spotless Virgin, not only remain free from every the least stain himself, but even impart additional sanctity to his virgin Mother. (St. Thomas Aquinas)
