Athanasian Creed (Worcester) n. 121

121. The Lord means His own Divine by "Father"; this, therefore, assumed the Human; wherefore it is as His soul in the body; for "the Father" cannot be understood to have been a first Person, since so there would have been two Fathers. The Divine cannot be in any other body than its own; thus it must be Divine.
