85. As for the Lord's calling the Divine his Father, some understand from their own conjecture that He spoke from His Own Divine, as the Son born from eternity; but that it was from the Human that He thus spoke is evident from His very words to Philip "he that seeth (A.V. hath seen) Me, seeth (A.V. hath seen) the Father" [John 14:9], and again in John "and we beheld His glory as of the only Begotten of the Father." [John 1:14].
