IX.—From a
Sermon.2386
In the meanwhile the evangelist says with
firmness, “The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among
us.”2387 From
this we learn that the angel, when he saluted the Virgin with the
words, “Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with
thee,”2388 intended
to signify God the Word is with thee, and also to show that He would
arise from her bosom, and would be made flesh, even as it is written,
“The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the
Highest shall overshadow thee; therefore also that holy thing which
shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.”2389
