70. Every man is born ignorant of truth, and desirous of evil, because his soul, from his father, is an evil affection. But the Lord alone is born seeking good, and desiring truth, because His soul from the Father was the Divine itself, thus the affection of Divine love, or the Divine love, from which He subdued the external which was from the mother.
