Summary

Portrait of Philip Schaff Philip Schaff Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. VIII, Pseudo-Clementine Literature… (1885)

One is He who said to His Wisdom, ‘Let us make a man.’ But His Wisdom [1] was that with which He Himself always rejoiced [2] as with His own spirit. It is united as soul to God, but it is extended by Him, as hand, fashioning the universe. On this account, also, one man was made, and from him went forth also the female. And being a unity generically, it is yet a duality, for by expansion and contraction the unity is thought to be a duality.
