"He bore our nature and thus fashioned it in conformity with his life."
πεφόρηκε δὲ τὴν ἡμετέραν φύσιν, πρὸς τὴν ἰδίαν αὐτὴν ἀναπλάττων ζωήν.
And he wears our nature [(having put it on)], remolding it to his own life.
Cyril of Alexandria, Commentary on John, bk. 10 at Jn 14:20, trans. Maxwell & Elowsky, ACT (Intervarsity Press, 2015), 188. The translation in the header comes from Keating via Aaron Riches (Ecce homo: on the divine unity of Christ (Eerdmans, 2016), 50). Greek from the three-volume Pusey edition of 1872, p. 486.
