Annotation CLXXVI
”The light shineth in darkness.” — John 1:5
On the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Origen, in the second tome on John, seems in a certain way to number the Son and the Holy Spirit among those [things] which were made, when he says: “If anyone should consider the multitude of the contemplations which are in God, and of the knowledge which cannot be comprehended by human nature — and perhaps by the others which were made, besides Christ and the Holy Spirit — he will understand that darkness surrounds God.”
