Extra patristicum
"God the Word did not move out of himself when he dwelt among us. Nor did he undergo a change when the Word became flesh. Heaven was not deprived of what it contained, and earth received the heavenly one within its own embraces. Do not suppose that the divinity fell. For it did not move from one place to another as bodies do. Do not imagine that the divinity was altered when it was transferred into flesh. For the immortal is immutable."
