And this species of the divine patience indeed being, as it were, at a distance, may perhaps be esteemed as among things too high for us; but what is that which, in a certain way, has been grasped by hand among men openly on the earth? God suffers Himself to be conceived in a mother's womb, and awaits the time for birth; and, when born, bears the delay of growing up; and, when grown up, is not eager to be recognized, but is furthermore contumelious to Himself, and is baptized by His own servant; and repels with words alone the assaults of the tempter; while from being Lord He becomes Master, teaching man to escape death, having been trained to the exercise of the absolute forbearance of offended patience.
