192. Let it also be described how He could expel the maternal human, namely, that the maternal human was the infirm which adheres to the body, and because that is evil, it was in correspondence with hell. When this is expelled, then there succeed those things which concord with and correspond to the Divine. For the body is but a correspondence of the soul or spirit of man and there is correspondence with heaven to the extent that this evil is removed. So also, a new state is put on in its place, and thus man is regenerated and becomes spiritual and an angel. The Lord, however, Whose soul was the Divine Itself, made His body to correspond with the Divine Itself within Him, thus above heaven. Evil with man however, cannot be expelled but is removed, because he is not life in itself, nor Divine as to his soul, but only a recipient of the Divine. Therefore, man as to his body dies. But the Lord from the Divine in Himself expelled the evil from the mother, wherefore He rose with the whole body. He retained the infirm [human] [while in the world] because in no other way could He be tempted, especially on the cross; there the whole maternal was expelled.
