The Coming of the Son of Man in Glory.\n\u201cFor the Son of man shall come in the glory of His own Father with His angels.\u201d 5737 Now, indeed, the Son of man has not come in His glory; \u201cfor we saw Him, and He had no form nor beauty; but His form was dishonoured and defective compared with the sons of men; He was a man in affliction and toil, and acquainted with the enduring of sickness, because His face was turned away, He was dishonoured and not esteemed.\u201d 5738 And it was necessary that He should come in such form that He might bear our sins 5739 and suffer pain for us; for it did not become Him in glory to bear our sins and suffer pain for us. But He also comes in glory, having prepared 5740 the disciples through that epiphany of His which has no form nor beauty; and, having become as they that they might become as He, \u201cconformed to the image of His glory,\u201d 5741 since He formerly became conformed to \u201cthe body of our humiliation,\u201d 5742 when He \u201cemptied Himself and took upon Him the form of a servant,\u201d 5743 He is restored to the image of God and also makes them conformed unto it.\nReading \u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03b5\u03c5\u03c4\u03c1\u03b5\u03c0\u03b9\u03c3\u03cc\u03c2 as the Vetus Inter.\n465:5741 465:5742 465:5743","title":"Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol IX: Origen's Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew.: Chapter XXIX","type":"page"}
