ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 15 v48a

THE MAN OF DUST. ORIGEN: If you remain in what is of the earth, you will be turned away in the end. You must be changed yourself, you must be converted, you must be made “heavenly.” HOMILIES ON GENESIS 9.

CONCEIVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, BORN OF THE VIRGIN. HILARY OF POITIERS: The first man was made from the slime of the earth. The second man came from heaven. By using the word man, he taught the birth of this man from the virgin, who in fulfilling her function as a mother acted in accordance with the nature of her sex in the conception and birth of the man. And when he asserted that the second man was from heaven, he testified that his origin was from the appearance of the Holy Spirit who came upon the virgin. Thus precisely while he was a man, he was also from heaven. The birth of this man was from the virgin. The conception was from the Spirit. ON THE TRINITY 10.

FORMED FROM MIRE. MAXIMUS OF TURIN: Adam is formed from mire by the hands of God. Christ is formed in the womb by the Spirit of God. SERMON 50.2.
