The Lord was heaven itself, as to the life of all things, and angels and men as to reception in finite forms. Because the Lord was conceived of the Divine Itself, thus from Life Itself - and concerning Life Itself there cannot be held the idea of extent and of space as there can of receptacles of life - it is thence clear that the Lord was Man as Life, just as every other man is [a form of life]. And so from Him as from the very fount of life is all the life of heaven, concerning the extension of which it is impossible to think clearly except from extension of the forms of life.
