St. Fulgentius of Ruspe, To Peter on the faith 22, trans. Liturgy of the hours. FC 95, trans. Robert B. Eno (1997), 74:
Therefore, this is the one who in himself alone provided everything he knew to be necessary for the effecting of our redemption, for he was both priest and sacrifice, both God and temple; the priest, through whom we are reconciled; the sacrifice, by means of which we are reconciled; the temple, in which we are reconciled; God to whom we are reconciled. By himself he is the priest, sacrifice, and temple, because God according to the form of a servant is all these things; not, however, God alone, because he together with the Father and the Holy Spirit is God according to the form of God.
=CCSL 91A, 726 =PL 65, col. 682:
Iste igitur est qui in se uno totum exhibuit quod esse necessarium ad redemptionis nostrae sciebat effectum, idem scilicet sacerdos et sacrificium, idem Deus et templum: sacerdos, per quem sumus reconciliati; sacrificium, quo reconciliati; templum, in quo reconciliati; Deus, cui reconciliati. Solus tamen sacerdos, sacrificium et templum, quia haec omnia Deus secundum formam servi; non autem solus Deus, quia hoc est cum Patre et Spiritu sancto secundum formam Dei.
