Καὶ ἐὰν ἄτοπον ἦν κατ’ αὐτοὺς διὰ τῶν τοῦ σώματος ἔργων τὸν Λόγον γνωρίζεσθαι· πάλιν ἂν εἴη ἄτοπον ἐκ τῶν ἔργων τοῦ παντὸς γινώσκεσθαι τοῦτον. ὥσπερ γὰρ ἐν τῇ κτίσει ὥν, οὐδέν τι τῆς κτίσεως μεταλαμβάνει, ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον πάντα τῆς αὐτοῦ δυνάμεως μεταλαμβάνει· οὕτως καὶ τῷ σώματι ὀργάνῳ χρώμενος, οὐδενὸς τῶν τοῦ σώματος μετεῖχεν, ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον αὐτὸς ἡγίαζε τὸ σῶμα.
