St. Athanasius wrote: "Although in itself a part of creation, the flesh (of Christ) became the flesh of God; and we, in adoring that flesh, do not separate it from the Word, as in adoring the Word, we do not separate Him from the flesh." (Against Arius, I, n.43)
Very insightful comment regarding the portrayal of Christ in iconagraphy and the comparison with those images that can be deemed heretical. Interesting. Thank you for the message
