10825. It is well known in the Church that the Lord was conceived from Jehovah as the Father, so that from conception He was God, and also that He rose again with His whole body, for He left nothing in the tomb, as He also afterwards proved to the disciples when He said,

See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; handle Me and see; for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see Me have. Luke 24:39.

And although He was Man complete with flesh and bones, yet He entered through closed doors and after revealing Himself became invisible, John 20:19, 26; Luke 24:31. In this respect He was different from anyone else, for everyone else's spirit rises again but not the body. When therefore He said that He was not like a spirit He was saying that He was not like everyone else. From this it is now evident that even the Human within the Lord is Divine.
