16作为我们的素祭,基督的超绝是在祂的神性里,也在祂的人性里。就着祂的神性而言,基督有神圣的属性;这些属性是借着、同着且在祂的人性美德里得着彰显。因此,祂具有比全人类更高的伦理道德标准。祂是神的这所是,同神圣的属性,都加到祂是人的这所是,同人性的美德里。这就是耶稣基督的超绝,这超绝乃是神性与人性调和的产品(利未记生命读经,一一七至一一八、一三一至一三二页)。
16The excellency of Christ, who is our meal offering, is in both His divinity and His humanity. With respect to His divinity, Christ has the divine attributes, and these divine attributes are expressed through, with, and in His human virtues. For this reason He is ethical and moral in a higher standard than all human beings. What He is as God with the divine attributes is added to what He is as man with the human virtues. This is the excellence of Jesus Christ, an excellence which is the produce of the mingling of divinity and humanity. (Life-study of Leviticus, pp. 100-101, 113-114)
