 In Mary, the Only Begotten of the Father is not only sinewed with muscles but fully inserted in our human condition. He had feelings, emotions, and passions. He experienced the joys of affection and the disappointment of betrayal. He shared our anxiety, sorrow, humiliation, ignorance, satisfaction in learning, and our fear of death. He was not just united with a real body but became a man like us in every way, except sin. For this, he is Emmanuel, God with us.
